These two courses are designed for groups of children and young people ages five through twelve and thirteen through nineteen.

Each lesson is presented with a light snack and beverage. Convenient instructions allow you to order Etiquette Achievement Certificates and Student Keepsake Booklets for presentation to program graduates. In addition to basic table manners, teens learn tips on grooming, how to eat different foods, make introductions, write social correspondence, the art of conversation and Cotillion Dance Floor Etiquette. Each lesson ends with a quiz to help evaluate and insure program effectiveness. All receive social skills that will last a lifetime. "Our experience with Mrs. Reilly's Etiquette Course was magnificent."--Ms. L., Mrs. N., Mrs. K., a Montessori School "Wait until you see this program, this is brilliant!"--Mrs. S.D., Publisher "Ours is the practical and natural approach to etiquette training. Young people study these lessons gaining confidence and skill together. They soon begin to conform to the roles of ladies and gentlemen at the table. We strive to prepare our students to dine capably and independently. We review and reinforce good manners taught at home adding nuances of fine dining etiquette. This system of dining and social behavior creates opportunities for each graduate's best traits to shine through."--Teresa Kathryn Grisinger Reilly
