Pilot narrative

Verbatim, de-identified by NASA. Placeholders: ZZZ, X, Y.

Flight instruction to increase proficiency. Low time private pilot Landing aircraft in slight crosswind started losing control and wildly over controlling. He rejected advice and resisted assistance on the controls. Resulting in a 90 swerve off runway with some damage. This could have been avoided if the private pilot listened to advice or accepted help. A potentially dangerous situation due to anti authority attitude. Education during training seems to have no effect on this. I don’t know what the answer is.
