MANILA, PHILIPPINES–Google Philippines will be holding a two-day webinar to share tips and tools on distance learning strategies for educators and parents.

The sessions will be streamed live on August 20 (for teachers) and August 21 (for parents), both at 2:00PM through the Google Philippines YouTube channel and Facebook page. The webinars are free and accessible to the public.
