Born & reared in Latin America, she learned English at age 10, when she came to live in the United States two years. At age 12 she went back to Latin America to attend Middle and High School in a finishing boarding school. When she returned to the US, it was to attend the University of Kentucky where she received her Bachelors and added French to round out her language skills. In addition to teaching Spanish, Mrs. Heitz has written three etiquette training books and was the author of the newspaper column “ETI-KIDS, Courtesy for Children and Teens”. She has been the source for numerous radio broadcasts and countless newspaper articles regarding etiquette.
