2. Tutoring or Online Teaching
What it is:
If you’ve ever taught or mentored others — formally or informally — online tutoring can be an incredibly fulfilling gig. Retirees teach everything from high school math to conversational English.
Why retirees love it:
It’s flexible, interactive, and uses skills many older adults already have. Plus, teaching keeps your brain sharp and your schedule dynamic.
How to start:
Websites like Wyzant, VIPKid, or Preply let you set up a tutor profile. You can work as few or as many hours as you like and even teach students from around the world.
Average pay:
$18–$45 per hour depending on the subject and platform.
