The Story Behind The Manners Advantage of Tampa, Florida

 

Times have changed from the traditional charm schools of the 50’s where manners were taught in the schools, and reinforced at home. Today’s fast-paced schedules limit the amount of time families have to dedicate to teaching and practicing everyday etiquette.

This trend, coupled with the troubling influences of pop culture and an increasingly informal ‘social media’ society, translates into children and young adults who are not readily absorbing the social skills necessary to succeed. At The Manners Advantage we strive to teach a balance between traditional etiquette and what is appropriate in today’s society.
