There are opportunities with web design and remote tutoring. Any time you can develop into coding and website layout skills will be helpful. If you are interested in acquiring the relevant skills, I'd recommend taking a look at SkillShare. See if you can find a free membership or discount deal.

For many people, making money online would be an absolute dream come true. The crazy thing is, earning money online isn’t a pipe dream. If you could find a way to make money with a website or some other online venture. The majority of online revenue strategies aren’t that complicated.

Hi Samiya,
Thank you for asking this question - it is more common than you'd think but people often shy away from asking this.
The pandemic has evolved the way that we work, making it all the more easy to find remote jobs that pay well. There are multiple ways you can earn money online, but the first step is for you to understand what you are offering. The process of finding a suitable option will become simpler once you acknowledge your strengths and build upon them as needed for your choice of employment.
Here are some ways you can earn money online:
1- Freelancing: There are multiple renowned platforms where you can sign up and earn money per project. UpWork, Fiverr, Crowded and Paperell are some options, but I recommend you to research which platform is best aligned with the skills you offer. The biggest pro of freelancing is that you are your own boss so there is the flexibility to choose your own timings and projects.
2- Investing: If you have some savings, you can consider investing in stocks or mutual funds. This will require quite some time investment to understand the options you have and the path you wish to take. I recommend reading Prashanth's answer on this post as a starting point to assess whether this is something you would like to pursue: https://www.careervillage.org/questions/332700?referral_code=BAtMXEJYRXuKYoDeycrvOA&source=mail:cv&sourcetag=email_notification_daily#your-answer
3- Remote Jobs on LinkedIn: Create an account on LinkedIn (if you don't have one already), complete your profile and look for remote jobs worldwide. Since the pandemic, there are multiple companies hiring remote employees across the world, so platforms like LinkedIn could help you find paid work.
I hope this helps!
