An important milestone has occurred at ISE. Larisa Evans, the founder and co-owner of ISE, has now become a practicing etiquette trainer. In the summer of 2013, Larisa completed training at The English Manner, one of the leading British etiquette schools, and received a certificate as a polishing program & social skills trainer. ISE has thus become the official representative of The English Manner in Russia and the CIS.
The selection criteria for trainers included knowledge of croquet and bridge, ballroom etiquette, English literature, and horsemanship. In addition to this and the etiquette curriculum, they had to successfully pass an exam to receive a trainer’s certificate.
Larisa now conducts etiquette seminars herself, covering such important and interesting topics as social etiquette, the art of greeting and behavior at various social events, the art of being a host and a guest, ideal table manners, business etiquette, dress code, and more. Larisa also teaches etiquette classes for children, “Basics of British Etiquette for Young Ladies and Gentlemen.”
Both group and individual seminars are available. Classes are held at the Turandot and Casta Diva restaurants, and Larisa can also come to you.
