5. Tutoring

If teaching English isn’t your thing, you could become a tutor for a different subject. Maybe you’ve got knowledge of a particular field you are more than ready to take on a side-job as a tutor. If you speak more than one language that’s a great place to start, or you could simply help kids just get through their homework. For example, if you’ve worked as an accountant all your life, what’s to stop you from becoming a math tutor?

You can advertise your services at your local library and spread the world through family and friends. Additionally, you can also post an online tutor advert on websites like Wyzant. If you’re stuck for ideas ask your grandkids what they are learning at school – it could be as easy as making money while listening to children read.
