Modern Etiquette Made Easy

We aren’t born with good manners, so how are we supposed to learn? Social skills need to be cultivated at a young age and reinforced throughout young adulthood. While basic etiquette training starts at home, formal etiquette training provides invaluable life skills that every child should be exposed both inside and outside of the home.

Do you hope that your budding business associate, summer intern or young child possess the knowledge and expertise to thrive in social and academic situations? Perhaps you are looking for your own personal etiquette training? Modern Etiquette Made Easy has you covered! We want to help individuals in a multitude of settings acquire the confidence to be the most successful version of themselves. Well-attuned social skills will pave the road to positive outcomes in nearly every situation life provides.

Modern Etiquette Made Easy was created by Dr. Sara Summers Stein with the goal of teaching all young people how to be most successful. Sara believes that a large part of personal and professional success is based on one’s ability to connect with others. Respecting and valuing other people is a key factor in growing up to be a confident and poised adult. Old world manners are no longer required today but the basic principles of etiquette still hold strong and true. Good table manners, appropriate conversation skills and making a positive impression are timeless skills that benefit everyone.
