How to Make Money in Education From Home

If you're a teacher, you know that the income generated from a teaching salary is typically far below that of other professionals with college degrees.  Because of this income discrepancy, many of us want to know how to make money in education. 

Well, going back to school and getting a Master’s degree, or another advanced degree is one option, but the increase in your salary is usually minimal for the amount of time required, and truthfully, it's only helpful if you know you plan to stay in the classroom.

You could spend your summers teaching summer school, but then you severely limit your "recharge" time and the pay isn't always as good as it could be.

But another option is starting a side hustle or getting a second job in order to help increase your yearly income. 

This would obviously require a time investment, but what if you were able to find something that...

•  allowed you to stay in the education field, 
• was super-flexible and wouldn’t interfere with your brick and mortar teaching job, 
• was able to be done remotely from home, and 
• was interesting enough to force you outside your comfort zone and potentially into a different career altogether

Would you want to learn a bit more?

Well, I'm 100% confident that you said yes, so I’ve put together a list of some of the greatest work from home jobs for teachers. 

They are ideal for weekends, school breaks, summer months, and as though that wasn't enough, they are also uniquely suited for teachers who are thinking about leaving the classroom to become an entrepreneur or pursue other careers outside the classroom. 

And they are things you can start doing now in order to save up the money you need to leave and get you the experience you need to take them full-time.  Yep, you heard that right...every single one of these options has the potential to become your full-time job.
