Private Lesson

  Private lesson is definitely the best high-income part-time job. Nobody can deny it. To teach others, you should study for yourself, so it's like killing two birds with one stone; self development and making money!

1) Works

  All you should do is teaching students. You could focus on the school records or scholastic ability test(수능). It depends on the students. If the student is deficient in some parts, or their parents ask you to teach some parts, you can do it, focusing on that parts. The most important thing is the ability to point out the shortcomings. For example, in case of English, you should catch the deficiency of vocabulary or grammar. It is also important to teach easily focusing on the student's understanding.

2) Pay

  Usually, salary is proportional to grade of students and the numbers of experiences. On average, you are paid from 200,000KW to 400,000KW twice a week for 2 hours of each lesson. If you are a prestigious university student or have lots of private lesson experiences with outstanding ability, or if you teach students who live in Gangnam School District 8, you're gonna paid about 1,000,000KW or more than that.

3) How can you get it?

 ① Flyer

 : Put the flyers in the apartment complex or bus stops which have a large floating population.

 ② Introduction of an acquaintance

 : Get the private lesson by the introduction of an acquaintance. If the network is established well, you can get another private lesson through the word of mouth.

 ③ Community

 : Get a private lesson through community such as Internet Cafe or agencies.

4) Pros and cons

  In terms of money, it's the best part-time job I've ever done and I've ever heard. But I think the greatest reason is not only just because its pay is considerable but also it is a great help to you. You will be fruitful if the students who you taught have a good grade or improve. It seems like your grade being improved.

  But, mental stress could be quite high. If the grade doesn't improve though you taught very hard, you will be unproductive, and feel sorry to not only students but also their parents. And if you meet the unmotivated students who force himself(herself) to study by their parents, they don't participate in the lessons or don't concentrate at all. Preparation time to teach is also pretty long that you think, even sometimes, it takes much longer than private lesson.
