lady in red,

That's one very good reason for sticking only to the facts in student records, not opinions.

Your instructor could have written, "This student appears anxious, freezes on the controls, and so far is making little progress". It would have been quite accurate, and possibly useful to another instructor who would then know there were problems to be overcome.

"This woman will never learn to fly" would tell someone nothing useful about you, but a great deal about your previous instructor.
