Do good manners really make a difference? Absolutely!
This is a unique opportunity for older children to improve their manners by building on what they have already learned. This is a monthly program designed to refresh the maturing child’s ability to live a fuller life through perfecting his or her own behavior. Whether your child needs to strengthen his or her communication skills, improve dining habits, or be reminded of how to engage in social settings, this is the course for it!
Mrs. B guides students, from start to finish, in what are the best practices when it comes to social nuances and dining etiquette. The lessons are catered to the students in attendance, but often include:
– introductions
– carrying on conversation
– reading social queues
– formal and informal table settings
– verbal and written communication
– serving ourselves and others
– using utensils properly
– anticipating and reacting kindly
We are passionate about teaching practical manners in the most engaging and impressionable way. Good manners, after all, are a ticket to elevated experiences and good times in life. The way one behaves is a gift to oneself and to others.
This is an excellent opportunity for children to make new friends, learn new things, and to practice navigating social gatherings with ease and joy. Please allow your child to join us. Mrs. B and her team are happy to help you bring out the best in your child.
