Below are some of the more common questions that are asked about our classes. If you have your own questions, please contact us.
Who is your typical student?
There is no typical student. People of all ages, from all walks of life, attend Final Touch to increase their confidence personally and professionally.
Is Final Touch for girls only?
People are surprised to learn that boys make up at least half of our enrollment.
What is the best age to start teaching manners?
The earlier the better! We have classes for children as young as five. We also have support materials for parents to use at home to reinforce what took place in the classroom.
Will my 16 year old feel comfortable in a class with students who are younger or older than them?
Having a variety of ages in one class gives students the opportunity to practice what they are learning. Rarely, in real life situations, are we only with those who are the same age.
Is the material taught really useful?
Final Touch provides a fresh approach to manners and image. Each program is designed to be practical and useful in real life situations. The goal is to develop skills that can be used on the playground or in the boardroom. These skills build confidence and the ability to move from informal to formal situations with ease.
Will one class provide my child with the necessary skills?
One class will give your child a good understanding of manners and grooming. They leave the class eager to teach family members what they have learned. For the information to become truly useful it must become automatic just like reading or solving math problems, this is done through repetition. It is common for students to take classes each year until mastery is achieved.
I have taught my child manners and appropriate dress at home, but now that they are approaching the teen years they don’t seem to listen to me. Can you help?
Yes! As children reach their teens they tend to listen to someone outside the family better. Final Touch is here to support your efforts. It is common to hear them come home and say, “Mom, did you know…..?” Years ago my own daughter came to me and asked if I knew someone who could teach her how to apply make up. I wanted to say, “What do you think I do?” I resisted and asked her who she thought may be able to help. She named a girl friend. A few months later she came to me and said, “Mom, do you think you could help me?” We laugh about it now. Rest assured this is a common process our children go through. As a parent, I always searched for people and programs that would reinforce what I was teaching at home.
