Stick with it. It happened to me as well.

Something that worked for me was to have the instructor periodically take one of the landings so I could see what 'right' looked like. I think it's a matter of training your body to do it. These days, it just seems to happen by 'feel'. I seem to be able to tell what's right and wrong without actively thinking and concentrating specifically on every piece of data. It will come and as a slow learner at least in the flying arena, I know that some people pick it up faster than others.

Advice I can give is to forget all the macho kidstalk about how few hours you went solo in, or how few hours it takes to qualify. Think instead about enjoying your flying and gathering experience to be a safe pilot. Oh, and when you get in the circuit for that next landing landing, tell yourself that this is going to be the best one yet.
