With the ongoing COVID situation making in person part time jobs harder to find for students, what are some alternative forms of active income a student can partake in?

I think it depends on the skillsets you possess, what you like to do, and the amount of time you can spend on doing PT. Some suggestions I can think of:

• Freelance work on Fivver: anything from coding to designing etc, depending on what you want to offer. Downsides is that gigs may be quite inconsistent

• Part time tutoring: something I personally take up as a student. Teaching is something I'm passionate in, and the work hours are pretty flexible as well

• Part-time jobs at F&B outlets, warehouses, temp screener etc: I believe there are quite a few Telegram groups for such opportunities? Even with Covid I still see quite a few job listing. Alternatively, you could try the traditional way of walking into shops with hiring posters.

• (If you're a university student) Part-time jobs on campus: Universities tend to require student help for various things, be it as PT research/teaching assistants, admin staff, temp screeners, food stall helpers etcetc.
