Is your ground instructor the Grim Reaper?
If your flying the airplane in normal and legal conditions this won't happen. Ground effect is nothing to be scared of . Just know it's there and why. You'll understand it and it's effects more during your flight training. You'll use ground effect to your advantage during soft field tol's and such. The above quote is more likely to happen if you were way over gross weight in high density altitude conditions on a short runway, or somthing like that. Never put yourself in a position like that. Many have.
