Campus life can be pretty demanding! From attending departmental trips/excursions to hanging out with friends, and getting stuff for yourself…you sure need some extra bucks.
Want to know how to make that extra cash? We’ve got 7 awesome ways for you!
- Become a freelance writer – A lot of students are not aware of how much money they could make for doing high-quality writing as a freelancer. In the business world, a lot of brands are looking out for writers with great writing skills to help communicate their brand message to their online audience. Taking up freelance writing as a student would help you a great deal.
- Tutor part time – If you love to study a lot, teaching should come easily to you and working as a private tutor would be seamless as well. There are a whole lot of students that struggle to keep up in class, especially with topics you’ve already mastered. Tutoring them for a fee would do three things; first, make you more money, second help the students you’re tutoring understand the topic more and finally help you improve on your teaching skills.
- Intern remotely – You could land yourself a remote intern job while your school is still in session. It just depends on how hard you try. Through hustling and cold emailing, you can be fortunate enough to get called to work as a remote intern. This is a great way to learn and earn good money simultaneously.
- Make money from building websites – If you’ve got great coding skills, you can make a lot of money in school as a website developer. Whether you’re building websites for small business owners or building one for some final year students’ projects, you can make extra cash to support you and even become better at coding.
- Run social media marketing for companies – People spend a whole lot of time on social media. They practically live their lives there. They eat, drink, and do everything there. You can seize the opportunity to become a social media marketer for companies and small startups looking to explore the online space instead of whiling on IG, Twitter, and the likes. You will make yourself some good bucks while at it.
