From Interior Design to Etiquette Coaching—Creating Beautiful Spaces Inside and Out!

From Australia to the USA, I’ve taken a creative journey—from designing stylish interiors to shaping confident, well-mannered young individuals. I’m Susan Ellis, an internationally accredited Etiquette Coach and the proud founder of Good Manners in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

With a background in interior design, I’ve always loved creating environments where people feel confident, comfortable, and inspired. Today, I bring that same passion to etiquette—helping children and teens build the kind of social confidence that transforms every space they walk into.

Why Etiquette? Why Now?

After moving to the United States, I noticed a growing gap in essential social skills among children and teens.

I saw an opportunity—and a need—to bring modern manners to life in a way that’s fun, approachable, and totally relevant to today’s world. That’s when Good Manners was born.

What We Do at Good Manners

At Good Manners, we make social skills exciting and empowering! My interactive programs are thoughtfully designed for ages five through young adulthood, teaching everything from first impressions and confident conversations to formal dining, interview skills, and even respectful relationships.
And yes—we make it fun, memorable, and confidence-boosting every step of the way!

My Passion, Your Child’s Future

Working with children and teens is my greatest joy. There’s nothing more rewarding than watching a shy child find their voice, or seeing a teen walk taller after mastering a new skill. Whether it’s preparing for school interviews, social events, or everyday interactions, I’m here to support, guide, and cheer your child on as they grow into their best self.

Why Manners Matter

Manners aren’t about perfection—they’re about presence. They show respect, build self-worth, and help young people shine in any setting. From meeting new people to dining with confidence, the way we carry ourselves makes a lasting impression—and opens doors to new opportunities.

Why Choose Good Manners?

At Good Manners, we believe etiquette should be modern, meaningful, and fun. As a coach, mentor, and your child’s biggest supporter, my mission is to build real-world confidence through kindness, polish, and practical skills. With every workshop, your child will gain tools that last a lifetime—because confidence begins with knowing how to show up, speak up, and make others feel valued.

Let’s raise a generation of confident, courteous, and empowered young people—one lesson at a time!
