Children & Teens
for Children and Teens
The greatest gift a child can receive from his/her parents is that of confidence, values promoting self-respect and respect for others. Our programs contribute to well-mannered, polite children who then grow into well-mannered, polite adults all the while emphasizing the importance of kindness, consideration and honesty. Children who complete our training are confident when faced with numerous social situations, including a place setting complete with multi-course flatware. Students easily glide through dining situations with poise and grace while enjoying the company and conversation around them. They learn the importance of first impressions, telephone/cell phone etiquette, thank you notes and more.
The Connecticut School of Etiquette makes use of role-playing, fun, and educational activities to reinforce and teach proper manners. Students leave with a detailed workbook and increased self-esteem after participating in the program. From simple courtesy to formal events, our students learn what they need to handle nearly any social situation they may encounter.
