Switching Flight Instructors

So I had a falling out of sorts with my main instructor, Matt. I wrote a long email to him yesterday telling him of my various frustrations, namely:

1) my cost of training had gone up nearly 30% in two months, due to the merger of my school with the neighboring one, resulting in an across-the-board 10-15% hourly rate increase, coming on top of the cheapest 172 and the one I was training with going out of commissions and their decision not to fix it.

The rate increase is particularly incensing, as the only way they could do it was by allowing one to take over the other, thereby eliminating competition and allowing them monopoly power.

2) more importantly, I'm just not "gelling" well with my primary instructor. I have to admit that I'm a little afraid of him. But the main point is that I am on edge when we fly together, as I continually try to satisfy his very strict requirements, and as a result I perform poorly. Sure, it's my problem, but at the same time, if I can fly with someone that I can feel more relaxed with, I know I'll do better.

On the other hand, switching right as I'm training for the check ride is difficult. I really want to finish the course. But it keeps slipping away from me, and it's driving me nuts.

I just want this to be done.
