FIRST PAY WITH TUTORING
Have always wanted to make my money myself I feel making my money would help me get necessary things that my parents feel it unnecessary to own, would you blame me?
I'm just a kid trying to please himself.
I had just graduated from junior high school then the idea was to keep myself busy since I'm all alone at home till school resumes for the senior secondary school.
I'm always home all alone, all I do then is see movies and hang out with friends who had just completed the junior secondary school exam too.
During that period we had enough time and freedom to ourselves so all we do is maximize our time to have fun.
Everything changed when all my friends got fixed up with learning a trade just to make wise use of that time. Then the holiday that started with fun became extremely boring
I wanted to make wise use of this period too to learn a trade but I was not opportune, tried finding a job but my stature and age was a factor.
So all I could do then was just pray I get fixed up one way or the other to ease the boredom and make wise use of the time.
My prayer got answered when a neighbor asked if I could help tutor her two kids with a private tutor every day after school. Her kids were both boys and will always turn the house upside down every day after school this was affecting time in their academics as there was no one to look after them properly.
Both parents leave home very early for work and get back late.
Though the mother was always trying to see how to make them better in academics.
I was available and felt this should help me make wise use of my time moreover it comes with a pay
I took the offer and help tutor those kids after school though it was a bit demanding as the kids were troublesome but then it was worth it as I got my time fixed and got payment at the same time
I was been paid #2000naira each(4.82 dollars) for each kid.

It was the first time I ever got to earn, felt a little bit of being in charge then as I was earning my money.
It did not last for a long period as I was also a student then and had to get back to resume school but then it was worth it and sure a period I had the privilege to get things for myself with my money.
This is a good work... Thanks for impacting your Knowledge to others
Nice post
Thanks man
How about giving it a title "Tutoring: My First pay was 5$"?
Simply "FIRST PAY" is too simple to represent anything about blog. Don't u think?
Not bad...
Thank you
It's good hustling any little chance we get
Good you added knowledge to the children
God bless our hustle
Thank you for dropping by.
Your welcome dear
Good one dear, at least you found something worthy to do that you earned from even if you did not have the opportunity to learn a trade.
Tutoring kids can be fun and annoying too because most of them no dey hear word.
Speaking about the kids, hope they did not disturb you too much o
Exactly you are right..it can be fun and annoying.
They did but was something I could handle...lol
That's good to know dear..
Do have a lovely week
I must wonder what you did with your first salary, hehe. Nothing actually beats earning your own morning, you receive less shouts from your parents and they start to see you with a certain respect.
Good thing you didn't waste the opportunity and went on to impact knowledge into those troublesome rascals...
Thanks for sharing ❤️
Lol..trust me those things my parents felt was unnecessary to me and I think they are necessary I got all of them..lol
Earning your own money can be really satisfactory and gives a sense of achievement. Weldone bruh!
Yeah it does
Actually this is also how I earned my first money lol
Lol..we are in the same boat
Abi,
At least it was a relief too to make your money even though it didn't take long. I love tutoring kids at home than staying in school. Lol
The money would be a huge one as at then when money had value than now 😁😁
Yeah!!!
Felt like I was making one big money then..
You know that feeling..lol
Yea, I can relate because I have also experienced it but in a different way.
Really, some kids could be Masters' degree holders in being stubborn! But really you getting your first earning as young as someone about to enter in senior secondary is quite sensible of you, man!!
Man I had to put my all in that job..lol
At least it did pay some bills back then..
Yes, it did paid some bills..
You won't put your all ke? 😅
Lol
Back then, I remember a lot of my classmates that became teachers soon after we left school. But most of them were just doing it because they needed the money and there were not many options. But at least, it paid.
Thank you for sharing this with us.
It was the easiest job you can get after school then and at some point it did pay.
Thank you for drooping by.
