"Lisa makes intimidating topics very relatable, easy to understand, and learn. I attended her virtual 'Outclass the Competition' course and was blown away by her extensive experience, ranging from formal dining tips and tricks to the best way to dress for an interview, to how to dress and properly behave for an online Zoom event. Best of all, she makes you feel so comfortable along the way."
“Lisa was extremely professional and provided valuable insight and expertise. She was exceptionally comfortable speaking with editors and a natural in front of the camera, communicating key messages and representing our client effectively. We would highly recommend Lisa for corporate partnerships and media opportunities.”
“Several colleagues said they learned something new, including those who had formal etiquette training! I am so thrilled we included you in our client training program.”
“The team LOVED you!”
“Thank you for your invaluable mentorship and guidance. The staff took away so much from the etiquette workshop. You brought to light so many of our daily oversights. You are amazing at what you do and we look forward to working with you again.”
“Highly recommended! While Lisa’s dining etiquette class meets virtually, it is live, interactive, and engaging. At times I forgot we weren’t all in the same room — which was a wonderful feeling during a pandemic. The course is a great value and I learned and retained a lot. The most enjoyable aspect is Lisa herself. I never felt judged by her when I was trying to use proper etiquette. Lisa’s ethos, which she models consistently, is that manners is about making others feel comfortable, which is such an important message right now. How we behave impacts others — even at the dinner table — and it’s so important to be welcoming, respectful, and to show up for our fellow humans, even if it’s virtually.”

Youth & Young Adult
“My daughter attended your ‘Standout Interviews’ class and really enjoyed it. She did a great job on her interviews in part, we believe, because of your class, and got accepted to Polytechnic, Marlborough, and Harvard-Westlake, where she will attend in the fall. Thank you again for your great class.”
“After a sleepover, the mother of my son’s friend was so impressed. She went on and on about what a gentleman our eight-year-old was. He sat up straight, used utensils like an adult, and said ‘please’ and ‘thank you‘ all the time. Thank you for partnering with families to teach the importance of manners to live a more gracious and thoughtful life.”
“My boys, ages 9 and 10, left their first session with big smiles, having had fun and met new friends! I was very impressed how much they retained! Lisa's approach is youthful and evolved, yet still produces results that would gain the stamp of approval from grandparents. Her lovely sense of humor makes things fun and engaging, all while teaching traditional etiquette. We have participated in her ‘Manners Bootcamp,’ Cotillion program, Virtual Dining Etiquette dinners, and individual instruction to cultivate conversational skills. Our experience has been wonderful!”
“What a fun evening. I think Lisa’s teaching really inspires kids to rise to the occasion!”
“The students I spoke with couldn’t stop talking about how much they enjoyed the evening and how much they enjoyed having a professional like you come to campus to share your knowledge. Phenomenal as always!”
“Lisa Gache is teaching etiquette and manners to a whole new generation. Lisa offers a new approach that is at once kid-friendly yet peppered with those old school values. She is determined that every child leave her school armed with proper manners and etiquette.”
“Once again, our students had a wonderful time, and the lessons from your course have stuck with them throughout the year. I am happy to report a 100% success rate of private school acceptances for our HYPE students. I know all of our students confidently walk into their interviews with a ready handshake and positive demeanor due largely to their training from your class. Thank you so much, we really appreciate it!”
