📖 The Hustle
Teach kids basic coding, typing, or computer skills. Use free platforms like Scratch to make it fun. Parents want their kids to learn tech skills but do not know where to start. Charge $25-40 per hour. You can teach groups of 2-3 for higher hourly earnings. No computer science degree needed — just the ability to make learning tech fun and accessible.
🚀 First Step
Create a free Scratch account and build a simple game, then post on local parent groups offering beginner coding lessons for kids ages 8-12.
🔑 Keys to Success
- Use Scratch and Code.org — they are free and kids love the game-like interface
- Let each student build a simple project in the first session so they leave excited
- Offer a parent demo at the end of every 4 sessions so they see real progress
