UScellular Introduces “Learn with US” Resource Hub

Educational Resources and Connectivity Tips from Google and Wyzant to Support Learning and Working from Home

CHICAGO (Nov. 16, 2020) – Pretty much anyone you talk to these days has had to adjust their work or school plans because of remote work and school guidelines put in place due to the coronavirus pandemic. With Americans continuing to search for ways to successfully maintain their connections, both socially and through technology tools, UScellular has created the “Learn with US” informational resource microsite on www.uscellular.com. This hub of information can help ease the pain points consumers are experiencing with hybrid or distance learning and working from a remote location away from a typical office setting with connected technology.

According to a Household Pulse Survey from the U.S. Census Bureau1, nearly 93% of people in households with school-age children reported their children engaged in some form of “distance learning” from home. Results confirm that the most socioeconomically disadvantaged households do not use online educational resources for distance learning at the same rates as higher-income households.

“We’re seeing parents and kids continue to be challenged by connectivity issues and needing resources to help them remain efficient in their daily work, whether that’s in their jobs or remote schooling,” said Courtland Madock, vice president of marketing for UScellular. “The Learn With US” hub leverages a variety of resources we have from industry relationships and expert tips from within our company and our partners to deliver helpful information to those who need it.”

The Learn with US hub is a destination for helpful tips and resources updated with new promotions and tips from UScellular and its associated business relationships. The latest tips and resources are highlighted below:

Wyzant – Free, online tutoring session:
Through the end of 2020*, UScellular, through a relationship with Wyzant, is offering its customers a free tutoring session, up to $40. Founded in 2005, Wyzant is a digital marketplace to connect students to independent tutors. To get started, customers can click the link on the “Learn With US” page to sign up on the Wyzant site. From there, simply answer a few questions about your tutoring needs and Wyzant will list the experts best equipped to help you.

Educational Resources - Presented by Google, YouTube and Wyzant:
From elementary to higher learning, these tips come from experts in their industry and can help with a variety of subjects.

    • Read Along Mobile App – Get friendly, real time feedback to build reading skills by reading out loud

  • Youtube:

    • Keep Your Kids Engaged with These 18 Smart and Creative Homeschool Ideas – Creative ideas to make remote learning fun and boost engagement
    • The Wyzant Blog Homeschool Resource Hub – If full homeschooling is your choice, this resource from Wyzant can help

Connectivity Resources – Presented by Google:
Staying connected is super important. There are several links to resources from Google on the “Learn with US” hub to help efficiently learn and work from home.

  • Tech Toolkit for Families and Guardians – For educators to share resources to learn more about Google’s technology with Families and Guardians
  • Google Terms Glossary – An archive of Google tools used in the classroom, plus video tutorials
  • Best Practices for Family Engagement – To navigate the technology your child is using both in and out of the classroom
  • Google for Education Family Tech FAQ – The most frequently asked questions about tech in the classroom

Additional Resources from Google:
Technology can help make remote learning easier and more accessible. Teach from Anywhere is a Google-created website that gives teachers and families the tools and tips they need to help keep students learning, anywhere, at any time and on any device.
