AFTER SCHOOL JOBS FOR 15 YEAR OLDS

If you want to get a job that you can do after school, you will need to find something that you can do in the late afternoon or early evening. This would mean finding an employer thatis real flexible or finding things on your own that you can do to earn some extra money. Here are some good ideas for after school jobs for 15 year olds:

1) Tutoring – many students need help with their studies and if you are especially good at one or more subjects, you might be able to get some tutoring jobs. What is good about this kind of work is that you can probably do it right after school and it can be quite convenient if you can find other kids who need help. Of course, you will have to find students who have parents that are willing to pay you for it to be a profitable venture.

2) Babysitting – this has always been and probably always will be one of the most popular jobs for 15 year olds and older. The more friends and acquaintances you have at school and in your neighborhood will determine how many possible babysitting jobs you might be able to get. This job would have you working at night but usually not too late so it would have to be OK’d by your parents.

3) Pet sitting / walking – this is another type of job you can get and do after school. Like babysitting, it will mean you need to find people in your neighborhood who have pets and need your help. Rather than take their dogs to a kennel when they go out of town on vacation, many would rather be able to leave their dogs at home. This means you might be able to build up a customer base of people that you pet sit for when they are away. You would have to make sure the dogs are fed and walked which is something you can easily do after school is out.

4) Lawn mowing and yard work – during the warmer months, you might be able to find people who want their lawns mowed and their weeds pulled. With many families having both the mom and dad working, this means less time for them to do the yard work. Other potential clients include seniors who need their yard kept up but are unable to do it themselves. The better the job you do, the more word of mouth customers you will get.

5) House cleaning – similar to yard work, if you are good at cleaning you might be able to get families who need their houses cleaned on a regular basis. You will want to do the absolute best job you can for this as you will be in someones house and you need to build up trust. This is another one of the after school jobs for 15 year olds that you can do well if you have word of mouth referrals.

6) Sell your unwanted clothes and games on Ebay – this isn’t really a job but it is a way to make extra money. You can do this anytime of the day and if you learn how to write the ads for your items and take good pictures, you will be amazed that you can really make money selling some of your unwanted things. You can even take it to the next level and go to the garage sales in your neighborhood looking for under priced things to buy and then turn around and sell them on Ebay.

7) Start a website or blog about something you enjoy – this is something that 15 year olds can do if they have computer and Internet skills. Making money online in this fashion is a long shot but if you are good at writing and start to get a lot of visitors, you can learn how to charge for advertisers and sell affiliate products. Even if you are unsuccessful at making money, you will learn a lot about the Internet and how it works which will benefit you later in life.

It is difficult for fifteen year olds to get real jobs where they get a paycheck because most companies won’t hire you until you are at least 16 years old. Part of the reason for this is because they would have to get extra insurance. This often leaves few choices for young teens (9th and 10th graders) who need money and they are forced to go out and make their own income generating opportunities. I have listed a few and there are surely many more if you use your imagination. After school jobs can be anything you can dream up that people will pay for. Good luck!
