Verizon Educational Tools


 


A partnership between Verizon Communications Inc. and leading educational providers brought these educational tools to the fore.

Homework becomes a nuisance with the absence of an expert on a particular topic. If children are unable to get assignments and homework done, their progress and development is monumentally impacted. With well-meaning and concerned parents at the fore, putting their all into their child’s education, homework and assignments will become seamless. By signing up for Verizon Educational Tools, children have at their disposal 45 minutes of free tutoring from Tutor.com.

TinyTap is the educational app that allows children to learn on their own. This do-it-yourself tool enables children to create games that can be used for teaching almost anything. The app is painless, responsive and allows anyone to develop their creative skills. Children are able to enjoy puzzles, readings and other features of the app. For absolute benefit from the TinyTap educational tool, parents can subscribe to Verizon Educational Tools and access all the features associated with TinyTap, including games created by pundits, publishers and educators.


 


 


Copia


 


Reading is all about learning while having fun. If learning becomes enjoyable for children, they’re more inclined to curl up with a good book or their kindle.  Copia gives children that learning experience. With ample learning material and books selected by pundits, all classed by reading level, interests, and age, children plying this platform will detect fast improvements in their various learning abilities.


 


 


The Copia app also aids in developing a child’s ability to interpret or to better explain an idea. When using eBooks, the app allows them to make highlights and annotations that are shareable with friends and classmates. As an icing on the cake, Copia permits study groups and discussions. This makes learning easier when a student is able to share ideas and opinions on assignments and course works with their classmates and other students who might be working on a similar project.


 


 


 


Duolingo


 


This app gratifies students who have a fetish for absorbing languages. It’s applauded globally as the premiere free language learning application (app) to grace the market. The app extends assistance to students in over six languages. Learning a new language can be frustrating, especially without  a partner. However, with Duolingo students are given a partner (an owl) who sticks closer than a brother. Complementing what students are already learning in school about language, Duolingo provides basic Spanish words and phrases during each learning session or course. Gradually, after progress is made, the student will be allowed to take additional lessons to quench their language fetish.

Duolingo also provides tests. To keep abreast with progress and test memory, the tests are ideal features of the app to make use of. Should a child conceal their language quest? Absolutely not! Duolingo has a social feature that allows students to befriend others and form an online discussion. These ones can later become study partners. For a better way to excel, students can even communicate online by using the language in which they’re enrolled. There’s absolutely no better way to learn a second or third language than Duolingo.


 


Parents are able to take charge of their child’s education and future. With these Verizon educational tools, learning will be much more exciting.
