Studies confirm that etiquette training can dramatically increase children’s and young adult’s self-confidence in virtually any social situation. In today's complex world there are many outside influences that can impact our children negatively.

The Internet and social networking sites play an instrumental role in shaping how children perceive different situations. Peer pressure also plays a significant role on the way a child behaves or reacts to various aspects of life.

Formal manners and etiquette training classes are intended to channel what is right and what is socially acceptable. Students will be taught how to cope with such challenges and gain self confidence. Instructors understand the stages of child development and know when children are most vulnerable to negative pressure.

Etiquette training includes but is not limited to…

1. Social Etiquette
  • Welcoming Behavior
  • Eye Contact
  • Shaking Hands
  • First Impressions
  • Common Courtesies
  • Helping Behaviors
  • Avoiding Rude Behaviors
  • Behaviors in Public

2. Communication Etiquette
  • Communication Skills
  • Making Conversation
  • Listening and Feedback
  • Nonverbal Communication
  • Acts of Kindness
  • Communication in School
  • Use of Please, Thank you and Excuse Me

3. Table Manners
  • Proper Use of Napkins
  • Proper Nutrition
  • Behavior at the Table
  • Conversation at the Table
  • Mealtime Manners

Subsequent to having mastered these three major categories along with firm support and practice, parents can be confident that their children will have the skills needed to deal with social interactions going forward.

Some schools utilize "interactive mode of training" which is both very informative and fun. This instruction includes such forms such as videos, handouts, PowerPoint presentations, movies, public speaking, multiple course meals and other social activities.

Once they begin the training they always look forward to the next session. Etiquette training is truly a gift for a lifetime.
