hello, i am reschooling my pony atm, he bucks, rears and bolts, he a cob, i was thinking about the best way to retrain him, i have had advice from my instructor and she said he will get better but he will never stop this as he just a lazy horse, she said he does this to get out of work, is there anyways to stop him doing these bad habbits, he gets bored eaisly, and is very young in his ways !
 
I don't know why I'm even bothering to reply to this since it's got troll written all over it but you say your pony is very young in his ways. Your post paints you exactly the same. Green and green never works so if you can't find a better instructor I'd advise you to sell your bored, bucking, rearing, bolting pony and get some lessons at a decent riding school before you go any further.
 
On the assumption that you are a genuine poster...are you sure you and this pony are a good match? Although it is good that you are getting lessons, if you don't know the answer to your own questions you may find it a steep learning curve. You may well learn on this pony, but there is also a good possibility that you will get badly hurt in the process. If he were mine I would send him away for reschooling, get a professional to assess both him and the two of you together and then decide whether he is the pony for you or whether you are better off selling him and getting a more suitable match.
