CAMPUS ASSISTANT
Sometimes you don’t have to look too far a field to earn some cash – try your very own campus! Whether you’re a library assistant, tutor or a consultant at your university’s writing centre, you can earn a substantial amount of money and add weight to your CV. The best part? You don’t even have to travel to your job, so everything you earn gets pocketed. Head to your university’s website, or check bulletin boards on campus to see whether there are any openings.
THE PAY From R3 000 per month for a part-time tutoring job and R5 000 per month for a more permanent post (like a library assistant).

PRIVATE TUTOR
You probably have a subject that you’re brilliant at, and you can pretty much guarantee that there’s someone on your campus willing to pay you for that skill. If there’s a first-year class you aced, consider tutoring that subject on a one-on-one basis. Not ready to tutor at varsity level? How about matric subjects you excelled at? Build a network by registering on a site such as Student.co.za, Firsttutors.com or Teachme2.co.za. Once you’ve got enough clients, think about going private to avoid paying an agency commission.
THE PAY From R100 to R170 per hour.
