Also the instructor did not answer my question, I felt that she was ignoring it honestly because I posted it several times.

I liked the classroom atmosphere as you can interact with others and also with the instructor.

You can create notecards to learn from in person with the classes, and you have access to the instructors.

Sounds like your course instructors really motivated you to take action.

My depression is not debilitating to the extent that I ignore hygiene...but it has reached the point where it's too difficult for me to be productive (working towards my degree, carrying out my responsibilities as an instructor), and sometimes thoughts of harming myself, hence the needing to leave.

People all learn differently so while some can just read books/manuals/website, others do better with a live instructor.

Went on to teach and was a member of Professional Ski Instructors of America.

I'm just starting my career as an active duty military member but I also independent contractor work as a flight instructor so I'm not sure if I qualify for a solo 401k or not?

You'd devise a way to take ground school and get the funds to rent a trainer airplane and an instructor.

My ultimate goals are to develop multiple streams of income in order to eliminate destructive debt; i.e. school loans, and to build a decent cushion for retirement, take care of my family (I've got a husband and two gorgeous girls), and own a dance fitness studio some day (I am a certified group fitness instructor).
