It has nothing to do with the Avatar's home element it has to do with their personality.

Aang struggled with earthbending because his personality is very much in synch with the element of air. Which is about working with your environment, conversely earthbending is about standing your ground and making the environment move for you. Aang was too timid to get earthbending at first.

Korra is stubborn and passionate, not bad aspects when one is trying to firebend or earthbend, but everytime she tries to airbend and fails she loses her temper. That throws her off, basically she needs to calm down.
