Hi,
“My law teacher takes a soft line with his classes.”
He doesn’t demand too much from us and he only wants us to skirt around the basics of law.
I heard a native speaker use ‘take a soft line’ in a similar situation, but I’m not entirely sure if it’s okay.
Thank you.
Can you please explain the subject " take a soft line", what's does it mean? I like to learn english & wish to speak as the negative language, iam worry that i will speaking wrongly when open my mouth

I don't hear or see that phrase much, but it seems OK to me. It's the opposite of 'take a hard line', which is used a lot more often.
