Manners in 2025: Why Parents and Schools Need Etiquette Experts
There’s a Beautiful Shift Happening—And You’re Meant to Be Part of It
In 2025, something powerful is happening. Schools and families are looking for more than just academic achievement—they want students to know how to connect, communicate, and carry themselves with confidence.
And that’s where etiquette experts come in.
If you’ve ever dreamed of making a meaningful difference with your work, now is the time. The need for social skills, emotional intelligence, and real-life manners is stronger than ever.
Why Parents and Schools Are Looking for Certified Etiquette Experts
From screen time overload to post-pandemic social gaps, children are navigating a world that’s more complex than ever. Educators and caregivers are craving support—and they’re turning to etiquette professionals to fill the gap.
They want someone who can step into the classroom and teach children:
- How to start and carry on a conversation
- How to listen, engage, and make eye contact
- How to handle everyday interactions with confidence and kindness
This is about more than table manners (though we love those too)—it’s about giving kids the tools to thrive.
My Personal Favorite: Teaching in Schools
One of my absolute favorite programs to teach is in the classroom. There’s something magical about walking into a school and seeing the excitement on the children’s faces. They love having a visitor—and it keeps me connected to what’s happening with teachers and students today.
It’s also where you can see the impact in real time. The “aha” moments, the laughter, the curiosity… it’s all there.
Of all the modules in our Manners To Go curriculum, my favorite is conversation skills. It’s engaging, creative, and playful. The role-playing brings the lessons to life—and it’s where I see children truly light up.
What Happens When You Become a Certified Etiquette Expert?
You step into a role that’s deeply meaningful. You lead programs in schools, community centers, and even private homes. You offer children (and their parents) tools they’ll use for life.
And most importantly, you build a business rooted in authenticity and joy—one that reflects who you are and how you want to show up in the world.
Our certification program gives you everything you need: curriculum, training, mentorship, and a path forward that feels aligned and easeful.
This Is the Moment to Say Yes
If you feel that nudge in your heart—the one that says, “this is the work I’m meant to do”—listen to it. In 2025, the world doesn’t just need more information. It needs more kindness, connection, and grace. That’s what you’ll be teaching.

The Children Are Ready. The Schools Are Asking. And So Are You.
This is more than a trend—it’s a calling. Let’s help the next generation rise with kindness, confidence, and connection.
A recent report from Education Week highlights how teachers are seeing an increase in behavioral challenges and a growing need for soft skills in the classroom. Many schools are actively seeking programs that support social development, confidence, and respectful communication—exactly what etiquette education provides.
