Unhappy Finding PPL hard

Hi All,

This is going to sound very odd I think. I am ex Navy back seat aircrew and for many years longed to do my PPL. Money issues held me back untill now at the ripe old age of 59 I have started my training at Barton. The problem is after 4 lessons I am finding it all a bit daunting, some bits seem to go in ok but then others just confuse the heck out of me.
Landing seems to be a bit of a thorny issue as well. My question is does this seem normal and am I expecting too much at this early stage. After how many lessons do you think an average person should be getting the hang of it?
