So you don't have your own horse?
If not i would say, advanced beginner.
You have not said anything about working on the ground with the horses, only riding. if you haven't fallen off yet, your not riding challenging horses. the more times you fall off, the better you become, you learn by your mistakes.it sounds to me like your riding school master horses and have done some lessons.
Keep going, we all start somewhere :)
It's really really hard to judge someone's riding without seeing it in person or second best a video. Otherwise you are relying on someone elses impressions and chances are, since you are the one on the horse, they are going to be wrong. You either undershoot or think you are better than you are based on your personality. However it sounds like you are maybe intermediate? It depends on the type of horse you ride and what kind of rider you are
Beginner.
Why? Because only your trainer knows what level you are. And because I have not seen you ride and because you have not mentioned your knowledge(if any) of horsemanship.
Riding starts on the ground- not in the saddle.
have you trained your own horse and given lessons if so u are an expect
