008. Celebrating Student Wins in 2019

For many people, including me, finding a side job that works with the rest of your life can be challenging. You might be like me, and need a job that leaves you flexible enough to accommodate last minute schedule changes. You might have a limited amount of time to work your side hustle, and need a job that will adapt to fit your availability. Or you might travel a lot and have trouble finding something that can travel with you.  Or you were born on Boss’s Day and were therefore destined to be your own boss (hint: that’s October 16th).Well, it probably goes without saying that I think tutoring is a pretty amazing side hustle...and in this episode I’m going to share with you why. Here are the highlights:[04:26] Flexibility [08:34] High hourly rate  [09:58] Nights and weekends[10:59] Control over your schedule[11:38] Travel[13:17] Rewarding[14:45] Celebrate nerdiness[16:32] Homework time[17:09] Pick of the weekThanks so much for joining me for this episode!
