What is your level of education? Exam boards are often looking for markers with relevant degrees. Its all done online these days marking scanned images on screen. Can easily do whilst sat on sofa. I earn up to £2-3k every June/July marking GCSE Chemistry and A level Chemistry in the evenings after work.

Alianza,
This sounds really interesting. Can I ask what kind of fee you get per paper/per hour? I've just been having a look and a few are recruiting in areas I'd be perfect for, but don't advertise a salary and I'm reluctant to fill out pages and pages of application forms to find out it's not what I was expecting!


Thanks
Debbie

You can earn a second income by providing others with financial education.
So you will be helping others as well as your pocket / bank account.

Regarding exam marking, I would say that generally they want recent teaching experience of that particular subject, but Pearson advertise for recent graduates to mark exams . Just google exam marking and the different boards to get more info. With Pearson, if you fill in the online form and it rejects you, you can email them to 'appeal' and explain why you think you are suitable.

Selling on Amazon and ebay can also earn extra income. There's lots of youtube videos of people explaining how they do it.
