Please don't confuse a "trainer" type aircraft with a teach-yourself-to-fly aircraft...
As suggested earlier: the Multiplex Easy Star is an excellent teach-yourself-to-fly aircraft. I've attached a picture of a retired model, for viewing.
You can also learn with the Wild Hawk (Jr. Hawk) from Nitro Models or Harbor Freight:

Or, fly a GWS Slow Stick, which is sometimes available with the electronics included:

Most HobbyZone products, includingtheforementioned SuperCub,are also decent for learning:

The Parkzone Slo V is a good option, too:

A powered glider will handle more windthan a slow flyer; but,please understandthat any rudder-only /3-channel airplane has difficulty landing with a cross wind.
Good Luck,
