Changing Lives..
We have had so many graduating classes over the years and during our 5 days working closely together, new friendships are cemented. But friendships are like flowers; they constantly need fertilizer. So, here at The American School of Protocol, I began a new procedure several months ago.
I decided that I would select one class of graduates each week and personally call each one to touch base. How exciting these last two months have been with wonderful stories from so many graduates.
One is actively working with children on an Indian Reservation, another with autistic children, another in a drug lock-down facility, an etiquette cruise ship director, a children’s dress shop owner who teaches etiquette classes in her store, an attorney who donates time to work with wards of the state, a dozen or more graduates who teach on college campuses, several graduates who write for publications online and in print, and the list goes on and on.
I heard stories about graduates who have experienced life changes such as births, divorce and deaths and are currently not able to teach. There were also graduates who have been greatly affected by the economy in their areas. Regardless of the reason, almost all stated that their training helped them focus on opportunities that improved their visions for the future. To all these remarkable graduates I say ‘ hang tight’. You remain in my heart and as you know, we are always here to help and to counsel. That’s what we do!
What a fabulous difference our graduates are making in their communities whether they are teaching or not. Our school is about changing lives and what a wonderful feeling and honor it is to hear these life changing stories from them.
Do drop by our Facebook Fan page to meet a few of them or perhaps you are ready to change your own life. Our next 5 Day Children’s Certification training is May 2-6, 2010 in Atlanta. We would love to have you join us!
and that’s What Makes Momma Happy!

Meet our graduate, Faye Van Langen
After watching Peggy teach the children the proper way to handle the napkin, knife, spoon and fork, we were then given the opportunity to teach the same lessons with an instructor. This hands on type of training reinforced everything we learned.
I was also amazed at how fast the children grasped the etiquette lessons. The youngest child was 6 and the oldest was only 10. Repetition was the key to success!
Thank You!

Meet our graduate Yasmin Navarro
The journey at The American School of Protocol was enlightening. Lee opened our eyes to look into the endless horizon of social media!
My favorite part was finding out the many ways to get exposed on the worldwide web.
Thanks everyone!

Analys Marquez talks about CPR instruction at TASP
CPR is an excellent tool to help in emergency situations. In my Children’s Certification Class at TASP, I learned the steps to conduct CPR. The first step is to see if the person can respond to your voice. Next you begin to apply CPR. That’s me in the middle, applying CPR!
This was excellent training provided by a professional.
Thank You!

Bethany Miller comments about her TASP training in Peggy’s home!
Having had the privilege of attending both the 3 Day and the 5 Day TASP Train the Trainer Classes, I would highly recommend the 5 Day! Both were outstanding classes yet the entire 5 Day class was held in the very warm and welcoming environment of Peggy’s home vs. in a hotel conference room.
Peggy was extremely professional in her classes and made all excited in starting our new businesses.
Thank You for Everything!

Julie Roberts talks about working with the children at TASP
Having the children participate with us during training was just delightful! Being hands-on with them during all the lessons not only taught the children the correct way to do things, it also helped us practice what we learned by reinforcing them. Seeing a diverse group of children learn social skills that will set them up for success was truly inspiring!
Thank You!

Meet Carla Thompson, graduate of TASP
The format of the training manual at The American School of Protocol is so complete and concise that it’s like reading a roadmap! As an educator, I understand the importance of relaying information that is clear and well defined. Peggy has accomplished this goal with diagrams and language that express the art of etiquette consultation.
Thank You!

Meet Yanely Peguero, a recent graduate
Having the opportunity to be a part of The American School of Protocol Family has been a wonderful experience for me! I was delighted with the way table decorations were handled every day to delight the children. They truly showed dedication, love and care.
Thank You!
