The world is undergoing massive changes in the way we work, and a lot of people and companies are figuring out that working from home is actually a great option. You get to set up your own work environment, your lunch breaks are in your kitchen, and you’re overall more relaxed because you’re at home, after all.
That being said, if you’re contemplating switching to a career you can work from home, one that allows you to be your own boss in every possible way, choosing the right career might seem daunting. You can’t know how much you’ll be making, you can’t know if it’s going to be a viable career, and some people just aren’t comfortable with that. To add to this, there are jobs like streaming on the best webcam sites that are incredibly comfortable, but not for everyone.
To help you kickstart things, we’ve got a few suggestions for an online career that you can start off slow, and if you like it, you can increase your workload and income. Each of these suggestions allows you to work in your own time and at your own pace, so let’s check them out.

Online Tutoring
The first job you could take on is online tutoring, and it’s one that can eventually turn into a profitable source of passive income, but let’s take it one thing at a time. When you’re starting off, you need to identify your niche. It should be something you’re well versed with, and it’s even better if you have personal experience because it adds a lot of credibility to your teaching.
A common misconception is the fact that tutoring only works with school or university-taught subjects. As long as there is someone willing to learn, you can always tutor people on things like life skills, for example, or anything else for that matter. It’s up to you and what you’re good at – make the most of it.
Initially, you might struggle a bit when it comes to finding people to tutor. But the thing is, once you find one or two students, you’ll probably witness the power of word of mouth, and you’ll have new students swarming in before you know it. Of course, how many you take on is completely up to you.
We mentioned passive income, let’s discuss that for a moment. If what you’re tutoring is an industry that not a lot of people cover, yet you find yourself constantly having new students, you could turn your knowledge into a course. Create a good structure that’s easy to follow, and make sure people can find your course. There are many platforms that offer a place to sell your course, and they’ll advertise it to potential customers for a small fee, but considering you have minimal active work, it’s worth it. Play your cards right, and it’s a great source of passive income where you don’t even have to lift a finger.
Development
In an industry that’s constantly in demand, web development is something you can learn if you’ve got a bit of patience. No, development is not difficult, but it does require you to dedicate time until you get good enough to start working on real-time projects.
If you’re just starting out and have no previous experience, a good starting point is to try and grasp the basic logic of development and how things work. Only then can you focus on learning specific languages and details, when you know you have a good basis to do so.
A thing that not a lot of people will tell you is that in the development world, practical experience is valued more than anything else. This is why, while you’re learning, it’s a great idea to try and work on mini-projects that don’t need to be too complex – just enough for you to demonstrate your skill set. Then, when it comes time for you to apply to real projects, put those together in a portfolio and send it alongside your CV. Thank us later.

eCommerce
If someone tells you that the world of eCommerce is too saturated and you can’t make it, ignore them – they’re wrong. There is definitely no shortage of profitable eCommerce ideas that can bring you money, all it takes is for you to know what you’re doing.
The key is to identify the right target market and offer them a product that they want, but nobody else is selling. Add to this a personal touch and make sure customers remember you by something, and you’re pretty much set to go. Of course, competition is fierce in the industry, so you’ll want to focus on a great customer experience, both during and after the sale, and you want to make sure your customers come back for more. Then, it’s all about keeping things in check and making sure your store is running well, and reaping the benefits of a successful online career!

Okay, how are you guys doing with the transition from public or charter school to homeschool? I’ll admit now that we are in homeschooling for the long haul, it was time for me to make a few adjustments to make it a little more awesome. Now I know every family is different and some of these won’t work for you, but I’m guessing no matter the ages of your kids, you could implement of couple of these ideas.
10am-12pm School work that is given by their teachers. I rotate kids and help them when needed. I have a toddler too. So usually one of the grade school aged kids is playing with the toddler, while I’m helping the other two kids. That’s worked out great so far.
12pm -1pm Make lunch and eat/free time- we have been going on a walk around the block or do a quick P.E. activity during this time too. (see number 2 & 3 for a little help with this too)
1pm Zoology with the Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden. They have started doing a Facebook Live every day at 1pm MST. The kids love watching and learning about different animals.
1:30pm-2:30 pm Reading time/Finish school work from teachers. They usually have reading assignments from teachers they need to finish. If you’re all caught up with school work, you can do extra fun learning activities here as well (see #3 listed below).
2:30pm-3:30pm The kids can do their fun screen time, creative play, outside time and help with dinner.
So as you can see, this is a super easy to follow outline where I have options for us to do, yet a guide for what we need to get done and what could be done next. It has helped me stay sane and not be scattered and behind in their school work.
