Driven to Madness
Captain Placid asks: What annoying things do significant others, workmates and other people in general do that drive you up the wall?

It seems to work.
You will find that ignoring misbehavior is a very strongly advocated technique.
My children are quite small still but are typically very polite because they have been taught| to be so. I am amazed that yours learned that without needing such teaching in real life situations. At four my daughter can decide and order for herself in a restaurant, because she has practiced doing so. If I always speak for her she will not get that practice. I'm not at all sure you can learn any other way.
