Age Group: 13-17 years

Give your young adult the gift of social poise and grace. The teenage years can be so awkward—but a Business of Manners youth workshop can provide them with the confidence they need to shine. They will learn in a fun, supportive atmosphere, and come away with a new and better understanding of fine social behaviour.

Participants will learn:

  • How to enter a room and walk gracefully
  • Deportment and what messages body language sends
  • How to introduce themselves and others
  • How to leave and receive telephone messages
  • How to set and clear a table
  • How to dine with company
  • What utensils to use and how to hold them
  • How to make a toast
  • Preparing a resume, respecting elders during the interview process
  • The importance of punctuality

The workshop runs from 9:00am to 3:00pm and includes an elegant three-course luncheon with faux wine. Classes take place at the Boulevard Club in Toronto, or can be booked privately in your home. $140 per participant.

What Participants Are Saying

What a wonderful class you offer to teens, readying themselves to enter society knowing all the finer points of etiquette. You prepare them to put others at ease, feel comfortable in their own surroundings, and put their best foot forward always. The tools you impart will serve them well now and for many years to come. This class is so useful...pity the teens (and their families!) who don't get to attend.

[Your course] taught me a lot of things. It was interesting and fun as well. Everything I learned that day I will use, whether it is going out for dinner, a job interview, going to a party, hosting a party, working with people from different countries, and even a telephone call.

I learned social etiquette to a degree that could not be attained through any other course. I now feel that I will be the choice candidate for almost any job from here on in. Thank you.

I loved the class and all the things you taught us, and I hope it's going to give me an advantage over other people in applying for jobs, like Aristotle Onassis said 'The secret to success is to know something nobody else knows.' I especially liked the way you were so direct to us, when we did something wrong, in a way so it didn't offend us and we learned something from it! I am eager to learn more in your course next year! Thank you so much again!
