I would suggest sitting towards the front, or somewhere near the amud. Most of the talking usually takes place towards the rear of the synagogue. |

Women' section advice: If the mechitza is down the middle, sit up front. If the women are in back or in a balcony, sit in the back row. |

In the Men's side as close to the Rabbi as possible. |

Don't talk in the shul. Use sign language. People will understand and start following. |
