| - We have 3 children and really were excited to find Mrs. Brown and All About Etiquette. Our 9 year old boys started with Mrs. Brown early last year and the first class they took was an excellent introduction to Etiquette, every day manners, polite behavior and expectations, how to set a table, shake hands, look people in the eye when addressing them.... all the things as parents we struggle with teaching our kids and getting them to listen. SueAnn has a fantastic and very up-to-date, fun and informative way of teaching young people manners and communication truly is an important skill and they feel important learning from her. We enrolled our boys and 11 year old daughter in her summer camp and our daughter was mortified she had to go. The boys were ready for a refresher and learned to tie ties and open doors for people. They really did a wonderful job just repeating the skills and learning more ways to show appropriate behavior and appreciation. Our daughter was far more resistant to attend however even afer the first day, she started dressing up just a bit and I could tell she was embracing some of her newly learned skills. One afternoon she was so excited to set the table and begged we take her to a fancy restaurant so she could practice with the forks and glasses appropriately. She proceeded to tell me how to set a proper table with desert spoons, multiple forks and wine and water glassware. She also was excited for her meet the teacher event at school because she now knew how to approiately introduce her father and I to her teacher and other adults. When I asked her to show me she did so and it brought tears to my eyes at how poised and confident she was. She no longer fought with me about bringing her iPod to the dinner table and scolded me when I checked my texts, giving me all sorts of texting dos and don'ts. However, I must say one of the best things was when we were school shopping and she looked at a pair of jeans with a rip in them and said, "oh Mom, these jeans aren't classy for certain places. Mrs. Brown taught me what clothes are appropriate! " Keep in mind, she still wears t-shirts and shorts everyday but there is hope for the future!
Now our daughter wants to know what class she gets to take next with Mrs. Brown. I can't say enough how valuable her skills and experience translate into her down to earth teaching. Each class the kids have taken they have come home with an in depth, 3 ring binder full of information for reference and further practice. She is patient and passionate about what she does. We will be enrolling our kids in classes with her for years to come! Thank you, SueAnn.
