A New Baby

I want to thank you personally, Ana, for conducting such a wonderful session with our team at Mutual Trust. I know they have greatly enjoyed the sessions and are keen to teach our team a thing or two about business etiquette!

“The programme you arranged for my daughter was brilliant. She has gained confidence so early after the session which has further built more confidence. I know she would highly recommend you to the world. Your work and knowledge is invaluable and refreshing in today’s society”.

"I truly enjoyed working with Ana. Her business and dining etiquette workshops were very informative and interactive. Through practicing Ana’s thorough advice, I am now more comfortable and confident in attending various social functions."

“Thank you so much for a valuable and enjoyable day. The girls could not stop speaking about the their Social Skills Course for Teens. You obviously have the ability to generate great credibility among teenagers, always a vital starting point”.

"An extremely relevant and professionally tailored business etiquette programme. The Standard Companion exceeded expectations and delivered support, guidance and etiquette principles I could use with immediate effect. I would recommend highly. Thank you, Ana"
