What jobs can students do to make money in their free time? Some US students have found good ways to make money.
New York tennis player Antonio Rivera, 15, finds a job of practising tennis with people who are not good at it. “You might think, ‘Why would a parent want to give me this job when there are better tennis lessons’,” Rivera said. “But as a student, I am good with children. And I can give my lessons for less money and a more personal experience on Friday afternoon.”
Many students turn their after-school activities into money-making businesses. “If you’re good at something sports, computer, arts and so on, you can make that for money,” Rivera said.
Harlan Peet, 17, is a good example. He makes money by removing(清除)computer viruses(病毒)and taking care of accounts(账号)on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. He also takes photos of products and puts them online for people who sell them through online stores.
“Really, there are chances everywhere,” Peet said. For example, he’s made a lot by helping some families scan(扫描)old photos and save them on their computers.
If you have skills about art, there’s a market for you as well. Shyla Boehm, 17, makes and sells things that she made by hand, such as jewelry and greeting cards. Boehm has also set up an online shop and offers her skills online. Her friends sell skills such as taking photos and making videos.
