“I took the Proper Way Academy class for adults and absolutely loved it!!! The class went above and beyond my expectations. It was eye-opening, culturally-relevant, enriching and a lot of fun. Monica’s life experience and expertise in the subject as well as her love and passion for teaching the class shined through! Also, the office is beautiful. I highly recommend this class!”
“I loved the sessions! Monica has an exquisite way to present and walk us through the different etiquette rules. It is a great opportunity to do something fun and interesting with friends.”
“I took the adult lesson with some other friends and had a great time enriching myself with valuable information. This class is a proof that learning is a never ending experience. Monica is such a great teacher; she’s not only very well trained to teach, but also shows a lot of knowledge in her area of expertise. I highly recommend this class!! And as a tip: this is a great class to take with close fiends, as everybody is going to have such a great time together!!!”
