Thank you so much Anna. I will think about that and pass it on my kids

Congrats Anna!🌹🌹

Congratulations! On the Diploma! :-) I'm so excited, and can't wait for the upcoming videos!

I went to finishing school its closed now but the friendships and lessons learned are lifelong and was awesome.

Woow I love it ,,,,,,,,,,I always want to join one of them

Que hermosa experiencia!

Back in the 90s when I was in high school, we did a module in home economics which was similar to finishing school. It was part of the education syllabus for all young ladies between the age of 13 to 14. Boys were taught other life skills like learn how to change a lightbulb & work working. Then some feminist parents said it was sexist & degrading & the ministry of education scrapped home economics completely. It became an optional subject. Not many girls were interested in the subject though. But from what I know most of my ex classmates went on marry men of substance & means later on in life, including me. What followed later were generations of boys who can't change a lightbulb & girls who can't cook a proper meal. It's a shame.

Dear Anna, where is your beautiful dress from?❤️ you look stunning. Hugs from Germany.

Congratulations Anna Bey

I went to the same school 10 years ago. Phenomenal experience!

My great grandmother who emigrated from Sweden, attended a finishing school before she came to the US. I have heard about this all my life. I wish I knew more about her but she lived in the 19th century and passed away when my dad was four years old, in 1943. I have seen a few pictures of her and I am fascinated by her and so curious about her. She was an accomplished, determined, and intentional woman for her time. My grandmother married young (at 16, which was common then) and my grandfather was older and established to be able to marry. My grandmother moved into this family's home and her mother-in-law, my great grandmother, taught her everything she knew in order to run a household. My mother always said that my grandmother, my mother's mother-in-law, was the best cook she ever knew. She practiced the Swedish way of how she was taught to buy the very best, then make it last. My grandmother always had a pristine tidy and elegant home. By the way, my great grandmother's name was Anna. I have always loved that name because of her. I wonder many times throughout life if I live in a way that she would approve. She had very high standards.

Dear Anna, I am glad you read my comment and you enjoyed it. You have so many subscribers and videos with countless comments, and this was an old video too. I am a new subscriber to your channel and find it refreshing to find someone young as you who practices the wisdom in old proven ways of how women and men will always be what we are made to be. I have 4 young grown children, with my two daughters being ages 20 and 18. I would love to send my daughters to this school. My oldest is a professional ballerina and travels internationally but is home now during this shelter in place time because it has shut down all performances. My 18 year old has a new relationship with an accomplished young man of her age who has an exciting future ahead of him with soon attending the top university of his life long plans. The things my husband and I tell her how to handle situations sound like many you say as well. I am thankful she listens to us because what I advise her seems completely opposite from how other girls her age handle new relationship situations! I know you can relate to that, and it is the basis of the success of your channel. I share your videos with my girls. I have seen wonderfully surprising incidents emerge from my 20 year old since she has returned home this last time, and I am so proud of her incorporating these smart practices during her time away on her own. All these things will serve her well through life. I did get a little off topic, going from past to youngest generations in my family, but in all that, to let you know how much it means to know you practice what you share, as you do notice comments from your subscribers, even from old videos. Graciousness does matter and takes various forms. I will continue to explore your videos. There are many things I appreciate about you, and the first impression is your personal presentation. I share with my family (yes even my dear husband) that this is our image to the world in how they define us. You define yourself in dignity and beauty. Other ladies can take note by you that both can be accomplished together well! Bless you, dear Anna, and I continue to look forward to your videos.

4 years for undergraduate (biology). Additional 2 years for human services. Apparently all any woman needs is 6 weeks learning how to be a traditional, affluent housewife.

Anna, you are truly such a spectacular woman. What an amazing role model! So much love to you xoxo

I understand and respect that you didn't / couldn't mention where you went to school. Yet you say you are a business woman who thinks networking is important. To me the fact that you are not mentioning the name of the school sounds more like a 'missed opportunity' on both sides. Through your videos your could promote the school. The school in turn would gain more devotees interested and anxious to learn at their academy. Although, I do not own a business like you Ana, I have always been taught that the highest compliment you could ever pay a business is to refer them to others. Not a criticism just food for thought. No matter what I still love your videos and gain great value and insight from watching. Thank you as always for sharing.

You look lovely in that white dress! Where is it from?

Thank you so much for sharing and being so generous with your knowledge. You’re amazing!

i feel even a proper lady only appears proper in presence of others, and when one is by themselves, it's impossible to hold up your body straight or do things slowly all the time, as it is so tiring. is it correct? etiquette is only for the presence of others, and we are alone, we can basically do whatever we want. thank you!

I love your dress please could you tell me the name of the designer?

refinement and etiquette seem to be a lost art. I am glad that you are re-educating us. Young ladies could really use a helping hand

I would love to go to a Swiss finishing school. It sounds like a great place to make friends, learn and meet like minded individuals. There are no finishing schools in my area so I am thankful for your online course. My life philosophy is "never stop learning." :)

As a diplomatic protocol officer, I am in awe that you got to attend this school (I know of this specific place and it's a dream of mine to attend one day!) I am so happy that you'll share even some of these gems with us. Please accept my belated congratulations on this wonderful accomplishment. Completing that program is a mark of distinction.

I thought you will announce your pregnancy

Was it odd for you to attend the Finishing School at your age? Please do not mean to offend, just thinking most of the girls were in their early 20’s.

Love your outfits and lifestyle, could you please do some videos about your outfit brands and dressing styles as well?

Congratulations!

OMG Anna! How very cool.

Oh, I love that lavender dress !!!

I like your furniture please link it.

Congratulations. You're an elegant and beautiful lady. Thank you for share all you have learned and help ladies to be better and more confident. Greets fron Mexico

Thank you so much Anna. You are an inspiration to me. I always wanted to be an elegant lady and I'm so glad to find your channel. You gave answers to many doubts I had in modern fashion...greetings from Sri Lanka

Amazing..thank you Anna

I look forward to seeing videos of what you learned at the finishing school. I, personally, love setting tables, planning menus and having dinner guests.

I wish I had the opportunity to attend finishing school. I did the next best thing, purchased a copy of Emily Post's Etiquette. Congratulations to you!

Congratulations! Many years ago, I went to John Robert Powers. They are still around, but now they call it personality development. I very much enjoy the aspects of your channel that promote good etiquette and proper behavior. There really are ways that you should and shouldn't act, as well as things you should or not say, think or not think. Etiquette is a lost art. I believe that your channel is probably one of the only ones on GRglo that I can say that on. If you every hold an elegant tea party/meet up in Los Angeles, I'll be there. Take care.

I will like to take this clases, where / what is the name of it?

I just started watching your videos, this one is my favorite so far -Your investment really shows your character & I am definetly a new fan! Thank you!

Ah that sounds amazing actually. Congratulations on your diploma. I’m so excited to learn a little about etiquette from your channel. Thanks for everything you’ve taught me. I’ve learned a lot.

Congratulations on your certification. You inspire all who follow you.

Can you do a room tour please

It’s a very expensive school you went, but it’s a great investment! 👏👏👏

I think we need more finishing schools to re-open. Kids today don’t know how to dress appropriately, talk appropriately, how to sit appropriately, eat appropriately or how to start a conversation. Proper grammar is going down the drain. If we had finding schools that focused on these things while adding in things like how to set a table, flower arranging, baking, basic cooking skills ( encouraged healthier eating). That would be a finishing school that helps young ladies with everyday life not just with a family.

You have come so far!! Congratulations!! It just makes you that much more affirmed in what you do for yourself and us. 🌹🌹🌹

Congrats on your diploma, Anna! I think you're a natural when it comes to good taste and manners, anyway. I also like the decor in many of the rooms where you make your videos. This is one of my favourites! Your dress goes well with the chair. ;)

Many congratulations to you, Anna! The degree is going to be a great asset to your channel. I can hardly wait to see what you have learned. Switzerland is simply beautiful!

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING US ANNA 🖊💝🌎🔥

Congrats on your achievement ❤👍

These days women want to be equal to men. But it is very different. We women needs to know some basic things to run a family/home. Working women doesn't meant we are equal in everything with men. anyway "CONGRATULATIONS ANNA" 🌸🌸🌸🌸 I learnt so much from your videos. Thank you.

Congratulations! Ms.Bey! Bravo! I am looking forward to more training from you. I love your program.

I thought she was going to tell us she was expecting. See how refined I said it. Way better than pregnant or has a bun in the oven. Anna you are awesome!

You are making a change 😌 I love you really

Congratulations on your certification! Feminism, for me, means having the power to make our own choices, "old fashioned" or not!

I have been looking for such a channel for a long time. Very nice and greetings from Bavaria!

Hi , Ana. Congratulations! Well done! Love your channel. I’m happily married and have a successful career. But I have learned a lot from you in terms of elegance and self- presentation. Would you kindly do a video on women’s perfumes that are regarded and appropriate in high society . Thank you in advance! Best of luck❤️

Thank you for all of this! I feel that our society as a whole, while it has grown, we have lost a lot of values. I am not just speaking about women but men too. One of the main reasons I fell in love with my husband was that he was truly a gentleman, he holds doors for me and offers me a hand when he can see I need it, just as an example of course there's many more. When did it become okay to dress inappropriate and act loud and be rude? I won't ever understand why.

Can u kindly do for us your morning routine and night routine videos, also texting video etiquette, much appreciated ❤🙂

You have great taste in everything. I like the decor and colors is this your house. Classic elegant warm not the cold modern

Please show us around your house... or whatever place you are filming in please. It's so elegant i love it....

This is great, Anna! I watch your videos for etiquette and being elegant. I look forward to your upcoming videos where you share some of the things you have learned.

Ms. Bey, I cannot stress how endangered a species the elegant lady actually is. Thank you forhelping to save the elegant lady from extinction! Some naive people do not understand that you teach an effective form of true feminine freedom. There is not just one version of a modern, sophisticated woman. Being a lady, someone who makes all who surround her feel comfortable, someone who makes a party seem effortless, someone who chooses eloquence over vulgarity, what a rarity these days. Really, etiquette and manners are the true currency of the future! Congratulations on your incredible experience, and your certification. I hope women of all ages understand the discipline and challenges (as well as the great rewards) of cultivating one's most refined self, and take your course.

LoveEveryone

I just LOVED your comment!!!

I love your style

Good for you! I'm so happy for you! Running a household well is really sn underrated skill. Congratulations! 🥳

I’m interested in doing your online course! I’m working full time so I’m not sure how I’ll juggle it. I’ll figure it out though

This is really exciting news! I was going to asks you what your experience was or whether you had researched conversational skills. I have some old books that I bought at the thrift store, they are training books in proper conversation. Of course I haven't gotten around to reading them, i'm too focused on looking at cats on facebook. XD I'm very happy for you!

I’m an older lady who understand the need for etiquette. I tried to teach my grand daughters important etiquette and of course I was just an older lady trying to teach them out dated information in their eyes. I see how the new generation of women are now like the men of yesterday. Many women want to keep the cute boys and the women end up in relationships where they are bread winner, mom, maid, and everything else while the guy is out with friends doing whatever he wants. I do hope girls learn from you and get back some of their power.

Wow, I’ve never really commented but I’ve been attracted to all your videos, I’m addicted and I feel like I’m learning so much, I feel like I’ve wasted my whole life, don’t get me wrong I love my life but now I wish I would have found you years ago, but Atleast now i can teach my daughter some very respectable things I’ve learned from you, congratulations on your new accomplishment can’t wait to hear more, your seriously goals as a beautiful women inside & out!

Congratulations!!!🍾

I wish Anna's big announcement were an engagement 💍💍

When I was younger, my mom always wanted me and my sisters to go to finishing schools however they were not that many in Baghdad. So she appointed a private tutor. It helped even with our postures, i was able to wear high heels since the age of 11.

I'm glad you was able to attend the school. Im sure it was quite an experience but a very helpful one. It's always good to learn.

As a feminist I was never into the idea of finishing schools, but this lady is actually helpful! I appreciate it, honestly.

You should totally make a video on proper etiquette. Btw I love your channel :)

The discipline you are sharing can help women in many areas, not just high society so thank you .

CONGRATS! You are accomplished in presenting personal opinion with couth while actually teaching with credentials and standard. Your Parisian decor is out this world- highly unconventional and unpopular among people of your young age. Yes! Love to see the legacy of class lives on! My inspiration🙂 PS Took me a minute to understand what diSCREEshin was😋

I love you more and more. You are just so relatable and come across as very kind, funny, smart, girl's girl. My favorite YT channel by far.

Can you give us an approximate price of a Finishing School in Switzerland?

I'm not interested in being a jet-setter or finding a man, but I do want to embrace my femininity and be a lady. To me, that includes proper etiquette. I've enjoyed your videos about fashion, how to be a better version of myself and now I have even more to look forward to. I'm very happy to have found you and I'm excited to learn more about etiquette from your experience. Thank you for being such an amazing person and a feminine role model in these times where people shame us for embracing that which makes us women! Sending you much love and well wishes for success in all your endeavors. 💕

I always always always wanted to attend a finishing school..but yeah, they are really very very expensive. But someday... * hopeful *

Where is the best place to find elegant evening and cocktail gowns? I am 50 years old, 5’9” tall and 183 lbs. so I am not Pencil thin. My husband is now employed with a company that is owned by men my daughters age. What is appropriate? My husband said I am too old fashioned. Congratulations on your diploma. I would have loved to have attended when I was younger.

Anna has great advise ladies. She inspires me to find my inner lady again and bring her out to the surface to play, have fun, be considerate, interesting and in a ironic way, deep. Nothing is deeper than being your best you for this world to be a better place. You can help thoes less fortunate and maybe fall in love in the meantime. Volunteer, join charties, go to events, look for causes you care about. Send a message with your posture and smile. Go ladies and live your best life.

Congratulations what a Beautiful journey. There is a Need for ladies and wives ❤️

Thank you. I'm ready now

New here! Love you Anna❤️

Congratulations!...You are really very smart lady!..Many Blessings!

I wish I had gone to finishing school in Switzerland! Can't wait to see your future videos

wow....How much does it cost to join swiss school?

Finishing schools are wonderful. I attended Lucy Clayton in London and it has served me very well in both my private and professional lives. My aunt also attended Lucy Clayton in the late 1950’s and became a successful model with them.

I can only imagine how enriching this program was. I am very excited to see the content it inspires on your channel!

What a beautiful experience, congratulations 😉

This is charming.

Wonderful!

Anna, I am going to need your assistance, personally. Things are about to change at that level. My name is Elizabeth Windsor.

I know the finishing school she is talking about, it is the last official finishing school in Switzerland. Congratulations on your certification.

I enjoyed hearing about your Swiss finishing school experience. I just did something similar. I'm a musician and it was an intensive, week-long residential workshop on medieval music (my specialty). I so relate to your feelings that it was exciting, challenging, a beautiful but isolated location (mine too!), but occasionally a bit overwhelming in terms of long long hours of study & practice! Yay - we both survived!!

Finally a real authentic elegant influencer, Who is not afraid of pointing out tacky fake distasteful trends. Thank you for being a beautiful cleanse to general taste.

Great comment!

Congratulations. I appreciate you being genuine. I like the balance of feminism and old fashioned values. It’s not good to be poor and miserable, but it’s also not good to be so privileged that entitlement is a person’s core values. Depends on the social situations and in the context of things, there’s a time to be assertive, and there’s a time to be humble. I love being a woman!

congratulations!

Yay

Congratulations, Anna! So happy to be under your tutelage.

Thank you so much. I would like to join your school. I know a great deal, however, the years as a Mum of a handicapped daughter, divorce, always dating men who are less educated than I and trying to pull them up to my level (that sounds really arrogant,however, it is not intended to be because I too have a great deal yet to learn), have kind of left all the things behind that were so important to me.
