Not impressed BUT recollect first language English AEF cadet only letting go of the control column after I shouted "LET GO THE F**KING POLE!"
That WAS after all the escalations from "I have control." etc.

That's no way for an instructor to behave - the guy shouldn't be in the job if he loses it like that.

My only consolation was that he was eventually fired too.

Then you had bad instructors. People don't learn by having teachers shout and swear at them. Doubly so when the student was a non-native English speaker as in this case and probably came from a culture that emphasized extreme deference to authority.
This particular instructor should never have been tasked with teaching a foreign student, probably not even a US one.
Must have been one of those I had from Boeing in the B744 sim one day. I pretty much told him to eff off.
I later mentioned to a BA trainer who'd witnessed my response that I had never spoken to an instructor like that before. His laconic reply: "You're not the first with that guy."
