If you’re a teacher looking to make extra money on the side or looking to start working remotely full-time, there are tons of jobs you can do from home! You already have so many valuable skills, from creativity to organization, to giving constructive criticism. Not to mention, you’re a natural-born leader.
The great news is that all those skills are in high demand! So, there’s a long list of opportunities that you’d be a great fit for. Here are some ideas for turning your greatest strengths as a teacher into a lucrative side hustle.
Are you that teacher who has a perfect Pinterest classroom and is just naturally crafty or artsy? Take that talent to Etsy. We recommend specializing in a craft to start with. This way you can build up your reputation and ranking in Etsy search. We also recommend doing a little research first so that you’re not offering something that many people already do.
2. Make money by flipping furniture.
We have all been to a thrift shop and come across a gorgeous piece of old furniture that needs a little (or a lot) of love? Well, with the right redo, this piece could earn you $1,000! This is a legit teacher side hustle, and we love this program that gives you great tips and secrets on how to flip furniture.
3. Be a virtual assistant.
Similar to organizing, being a virtual assistant is something many people could do. This might involve getting a local business person’s accounting organized or taking on appointments or emails for someone. It really could include anything. So, if you like working with people and can help in this way, spread the word. A great place for anyone to get started, easily as a virtual assistant is Fiverr.
4. Write for other educational websites.
We say “other” in a loving way. There are lots of websites out there needing freelancers and companies looking for curriculum writers. Check out the jobs page on eNotes or just go to your favorite educational publisher or company and ask if they’re looking for teacher writers. Warning: Not all of these opportunities pay the greatest, but they could be a good way to get your foot in the door.
5. Sell your lesson plans.
6. Become an online researcher
If you love finding answers to your students’ tricky questions, you could make a great online researcher. Online platforms like Wonder hire researchers to respond to client questions. Whenever you log on, you’ll find client requests that have been assigned to you. Your job is then to research the answers, and break down what you find into a digestible response.
Love to research travel spots? Market yourself as a vacation planner and get paid to help people find the best travel, lodging, tours, restaurants, etc. for their vacations. Evolution Travel is a great place to get started as a travel agent.
We didn’t go into teaching for the money. We teach because we’re passionate about making an impact on our students. Watching faces light up when our students have those special moments makes the frustrating parts of our job more tolerable… but it doesn’t pay the bills. Many teachers are forced to work second jobs to make ends meet. There are so many options available. Fortunately, many allow you to make your own hours, work from home or be your own boss.
We offer you many part-time, full-time, and seasonal job opportunities to assist you with breaking through work-life balance and financial barriers. Enjoy working in your home creating your own work schedule with no commute through the daily havoc of traffic. Save gas and take your job with you, even if you have to relocate!
The positions that we offer are ideal for stay-at-home parents, retirees, college students, veterans, anyone in the need of a supplemental income, and anyone who currently do not have a source of income. COME BE YOUR OWN BOSS WITH US.
