Tip of the Day: Tutor for Cash

If you know how to play an instrument or have a background in math, science, or English, tutoring may be a good way to make some extra cash. Put up flyers in your area, post an ad on Craigslist.org, and talk to local schools and after-school programs to see if they have children in need of tutoring. Make sure to have your résumé handy, and provide references, even if they’re in the form of your friends whose children you have taught a skill.
