Remote Work is Awesome!
The world and the way we work is changing, and I'm proud of my girl Lucy for securing an awesome job that allows her to set her own hours, take vacation whenever she wants (for as long as she wants), and also hustle as much as she wants (when she wants the money).
Teach Online!
Here's Lucy in her cute home office/classroom. Her job is teaching English to kids from China. The company, called VIPKID, organizes all the lesson materials. She simply says she is available at a certain times and parents/students book her for that time! Its pretty awesome and allows us to live the lifestyle we want to live, which includes world travel, as she can work from anywhere with wifi and a quiet room. It's definitely refreshing to be in control after working as teachers Korea where teachers carry heavy workloads without flexibility. I'll let her tell you about it:
I was recently hired as a teacher for an awesome company called VIPKID! I was extremely skeptical about all online teaching companies UNTIL I came across VIPKID.
VIPKID is online teaching for Chinese students aged 5-12 all online, all from home! You make your own hours each week, and there is no minimum or maximum. The pay is great ($16-22/hr depending on experience) the students are adorable, and the flexibility is amazing. AND NO LESSON PLANNING. It's a fantastic opportunity for anyone looking for some extra $ on the weekends, or anyone in love with teaching and traveling (like me)!
VIPKID is growing like crazy, so they are running a special for new teachers sign ups this month. I get an incentive if I help connect them with new teachers. If you're interested at all feel free to message me and I'll give you more information and how I snagged this awesome gig.

(FYI - they require a bachelor's degree, teaching experience and a North American accent)
Feel free to ask questions and I'll have Lucy answer them. She needs to maker her own steemit account, but for now this will do!!
