"Dear students, I think walking like this is not an option. Walking on a snowy ground is difficult and I think we need a mount or something. How is it?"
Ainsley was not arrogant and didn't use her prestige as the teacher to force her opinion on the students.
She was here to assist the students, not to let the students 'eat' passively and was 'fed' recklessly.
And so, Ainsley kindly asked the students' opinions to develop their own decision-making skills.
The students other than Finley were all taken aback by Ainsley's action.
To be honest, even if students and instructors could have conflicts and the hierarchy was not so strict, in the end, instructors had more power.
Thus, it was not uncommon for instructors, especially strong ones, to make decisions for the students and students had no choice but to obey.
This was the first time a strong instructor actually took into consideration the students' own opinions and ideas!
