Class Description

Encouragement is the KEY ingredient that makes all other parenting strategies work. And really understanding how to encourage your child is not as easy as it sounds.

This class is where parents build the foundation for their approach and answer the question "What kind of parent do I want to be?" You wouldn’t build a house on a weak foundation; likewise, you can’t help children develop into capable, resilient adults (that is the goal!) when day-to-day interactions and relationships are steeped in a negative, discouraging spin cycle.

In this class you'll learn encouragement strategies and techniques to build a better connection with your child. Parents find that many of the challenges leading them to PEP -- defiance, power struggles, screen time issues -- become less problematic when they have tools to foster their child's independence, resilience, and cooperation.

How the Class Works

  • Each Saturday you'll receive a new Video Lesson to watch at your convenience on any device!

  • Throughout the week, get ongoing ideas and support by posting your questions for the instructor.

  • Best of all, the class videos, handouts and materials are available to you for one year to review and revisit as needed!

This Course Includes

4 Instructional Video Lessons that are short (5-6 minutes each) and packed with practical tips and advice to use right away. Video lessons include role plays that demonstrate real life examples of what to say and do, and what NOT to say and do!

5 "Try This At Home" Exercises to put each lesson into immediate practice with your family.

5 Topical PEP Parenting Articles to dig deeper into the topics.

7 Handy printouts with examples and language to use with your children, and which you can post nearby to keep you on track.

An easy to access online forum where you will receive Weekly Tips and get your questions answered.

How Much Time Will This Take?

That depends on you. Learning these new parenting skills is like learning a new language; it takes practice.

Reviewing the instructional videos and handouts will take about 20. The Try This At Home exercises are designed to fit into and improve your every day life. The Q&A Video Conference is 1 hour each week. And the Class Discussion Forum takes as much or as little time as you want to contribute. As always, the more you participate, the more you benefit.

Lisa DiSciullo

Lisa is a lifelong educator and trainer in many capacities: from computer, communication, and relationship skills in Fortune 500 companies, to respectful ways for parents to teach and support their children.

She discovered PEP when one of her 3 children was struggling in school. After getting guidance from a counselor on how to help her child, she asked “That’s great, now what can you do for ME, because I feel like a failure as a parent, all I ever do is yell at my kids, if we continue this way not only will I fail, but my children will fail too!”

PEP provided skills, support, and practice for Lisa's family. She is passionate about helping parents guide their children to be capable, positive, independent and courageous.
