I speak 4 languages but I'm only fluent in 3, including english and I'm good in science and maths so tutoring is an option but with pandemic that option is out tho I can still teach English overseas online

So due to these reasons the only possibility that I think that I can do best is freelancing...I plan of learning some computer languages and do projects I guess...but yeah it'd be really good if I could do like data entry or something easy like surveys(I know sounds like I'm trying to find an easy way out) but honestly I'm desperate for growth and for that I need financial independence

Tho again sorry if I made this a bit too complex...this is kinda why I'm confused.

Teaching English online sounds doable. Unless you go work for a company that does that though, I think you’d have to basically start a small business and hunt for students to tutor etc.
I don’t want to beat a dead horse but I think you should consider working online remotely for a Foreign company where the economy is better. The benefit of online work is that where you are isn’t that important. My partner works for a European company (we are in the US) and started in the office but COVID has her working from home. She works with people from all over the world though, included people who live where her company has no offices. Especially right now because of COVID, US, Canada, and European companies like those in tech and finance, they don’t care where you are as long as you can do the job.

Where you are the pay mag be a couple hundred a month, but here an entry level job can pay over $100 a day. And you can work for a company here, while being there, and never leave your house. We do it all the time. I live in a part of America that is very expensive to live. Cheap rent is $3,000usd a month and houses start at over $1 million USD. Because it costs so much to live here, they pay more than they do places in the US where it is cheaper to live. So lots of people I work with get hired here so they get paid more, then move somewhere that is cheaper so that they make more than everyone else around them and can live very well.

If I do get hired by any country overseas I'm all in for that cause I am sure I cannot do it in the region im in, also if I want companies to know about me should I use linked in?(I have legit no idea)

If you work remotely, you can work anywhere since you’ll just be at home, and what is the difference between being at home in Paris or Munich or New York or anywhere else as long as you have internet that is decent?

Speaking 4 languages makes you a very attractive hire for many companies and many positions. Sales people often are benefited by speaking many languages. Support and customer care staff. Companies have “social media” departments who help coordinate localized advertising and run Twitter or face book accounts and interact with the public. Wing able to speak 4 languages would be huge for that. And international companies from manufacturing to software and more have use for supervisors and such who can speak multiple languages.

100 dollars a day would be amazing and I'd do it, I have a cousin who is really hard working and he studied a lot and kept his grades at the top and now he's stuck with a job that only pays him 280usd per month...getting job here is like finding a needle in haystack..tho that's why getting a job in any foreign companies would be great

My partner used to be in charge of the agents for a company that sold fancy electronic gadgets to people. They used contractors in Asia to take general low level calls on problems and such. She’d have to go over there and find vendors, negotiate deals, train agents, develop the training plans that would be used in the future and so on. That’s an example of where companies see huge benefits in multi lingual hires. There are ALL kinds of positions that is a huge asset for.

Short term that gives you lots of options and makes you very desirable. A company may have red tape or whatever to deal with on international hires, but your resume would look like it was worth it. Long term, after school or if you keep working for them through school such as a night or weekend job- that could be the door to promotions or other opportunities. It also allows some net working to meet people who in 2,4 whatever years could help you find a job after you graduate- and being that you’d meet people from all over the globe, that could open doors for working for foreign firms who might pay more than what your local economy will.

English would be useful yeah but other 3 languages are Indian and not international so not much use but I've got time so I can learn a new language...altho that depends on the job right?

Just something to think about. But do what works for you and what makes sense to you. I don’t know your life and won’t pretend to know how to live it better than you do lol. You have your goals now, and your goals later on, and it’s good if you can do something that will be productive for you in both those things now and later. I wish I had a specific lead for you on at least how to hustle some quick cash in your spare time without leaving the house.

Software based gif work abounds and is suited to your goals- but I don’t know how you are with coding and such, and you haven’t mentioned it so I assume it isn’t your foundation. Your language skills though open doors. Asides teaching English, or teaching other languages to English speakers or etc. we talked about translation, wether for politicians or companies, news or local media... there are people who dub and sub title or translate foreign shows and films or books and such. Fan art and small projects for things like animation from other countries. There are companies that translate or make localized packaging for consumer goods. Politicians and dignitaries often need translators. I was friends with a woman when I was much younger who did that for her nations consulate.

There is also writing. Beyond translating or otherwise dubbing work- you can find small paid gig work online doing editing work for authors, or doing copy work- proofing things like advertisements and pamphlets. Lots of fan authors or aspiring authors hire editors to help with their writing- so that’s a possibility too.

@blazingfrags- I got your request. Forgive me as I am not well versed in these things. What do I put? My email or something?
blazingfrags · 3 years ago
As of now I only know basics of python and I've just started to lay down my foundation in coding but I am really interested in learning it and I think in long term I'll want to study A.I so that coinsides as well
blazingfrags · 3 years ago
Yep a lot of things you said we're really interesting and since you also know about this stuff I might ask you for guidance one I set off for this path so you can put in your email or discord or anything you're comfortable with
blazingfrags · 3 years ago
Also thanks again for guiding me, been doing a lot of research but people can provide more then internet sometimes tbh
guest_ · 3 years ago
No worries. Python is good to know regardless. I don’t have discord or anything like that, or I’d provide. I can give you my email though. I don’t check my personal email much so please do not be offended if I lag on noticing anything, but I’d be happy to speak with you more frags.
