Mrs. Wilder was able to come to my school twice and complete two classes. She discussed the proper way to greet someone and how to formally shake hands with another person. She shared a variety of examples and the use of slides that she used to present her content. She was very knowledgeable and gentle when presenting. What I loved most was the time she used to allow the girls to practice what they had learned. They were able to pair up and demonstrate what they learned, while Mrs. Wilder worked with individuals that needed a little extra help. She was warm and welcoming towards all.
