About Me

What happened to Please and Thank you? Can we blame children and teenagers for their behavior or do we blame the parents? I created this blog to have some open and honest conversations about manners and civility. I am fortunate to have a career that allows me interactions with all types of people and I happen to live in the best city in the world! So follow my blog and see what I experience, and learn some of the important life skills I teach my students young and old. To find out more about me visit my site at www.swannoir.net

Etiquette, Manners, Protocol,

Mind your manners, know the proper etiquette for a formal dinner, and what is the protocol in the White House?
Why is this important to teach to young people? I have a quote, again to share how I really feel about how important it is for young people to know these important "soft" skills.
" Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see." -John Lennon.
That just says it all for me. When you open your eyes to something new, travel, a way of life, a new word, or just learning, it is a beautiful thing.
I really enjoy what I do.
