Earning money from home!


5. Rent, sell books, online tutoring, project work
What is it?
If you love reading or are academically gifted, this is perhaps the easiest way to earn some pocket money. You can rent out your books, sell previous year’s school books, tutor other kids online and help them with their project work. You can also earn by teaching or selling courses on online platforms like Udacity, Udemy or Lynda, or sign up for online tutoring sites like Vedantu, TutorMe, TeacherOn, etc.

How to do it?
Step 1: For online tutoring sites, you will first have to register with the site. Then you will be assessed through an online interview or demo, and if you clear it, you will be taken on board.
Step 2: All you need to be an online tutor are a computer or laptop, Internet connection, and expertise in your subject.

How much can you earn?
With online tutoring sites, you can earn anywhere from Rs 10,000 to Rs 1 lakh a month. These pay either a fixed salary or on an hourly contract basis. For tutoring your friends, neighbours and acquaintances, depending on your caliber, academic record and teaching skills, you can start by charging Rs 250 per hour and increase it to Rs 501-1,000 as you gain experience. Depending on the complexity of the project work, you can charge between Rs 250 and Rs 1,500 per project.
