Jobs During School Hours – 9 Remote Options For You!

Do you need a flexible, remote job during school hours? I have nine to consider below!

By now, most kids will soon be starting back to school. Seems like summer is getting shorter and shorter!

Many of my readers have let me know that they really want to work from home, but have to find something that can be done during traditional school hours. They want to work while their kids are gone for the day — and be done right around the time they get back.

So today I've done some research to find the best work from home jobs to do during school hours. Please let me know in the comments if you can think of any others!

9 Flexible Jobs During School Hours

Freelance writers can usually work whenever it's convenient for them, provided they meet deadlines. And you don't have to have an English degree or a ton of past experience to get freelance writing jobs.

Search Evaluation/Internet Judge

While most search evaluation companies will require that you work a set number of hours each week, the majority do not care when you actually get around to doing the work. So this is another type of work at home job that would be really easy to do while your kids are at school.

Go here for a list of search evaluation companies that have regular openings.

Student Test & Essay Scoring Jobs During School Hours & The School Year

WriteScore and Cognia are two companies that have frequent openings for work at home test and essay scorers. The work is project-based and seasonal, and both of these companies will allow you to work any hour of the day or night.

Note that WriteScore requires a two-year college degree before they will consider you, and Pearson will require at least a bachelor's degree.

WriteScore currently has a wait-list set up to be considered for scoring opportunities.

We have a post with more online test scoring options here.

Online Tutoring

BookNookPrepNow, and Brainfuse are three reputable companies with online tutoring jobs. These companies are also very flexible when it comes to your schedule.

Note that many of these companies will require you to have at least a college degree before considering you.

ESL Tutoring

ESL (English Second Language) tutors get paid to help non-native English speakers learn the language. This is an industry where you don't necessarily need past experience, nor do you need to be bilingual.

Cambly is a well known company that has regular openings for this work.

Translation

If you're bi- or multilingual, this is another great flexible work at home option. VerbalizeIt is one company that offers flexible hours, and you can browse other translation companies here.

Virtual Assisting

Virtual assistants provide services based on their own skills to various clients. While many virtual assistants work for themselves and set their own rates, there are some companies that hire many VA's to work under them.

Three companies like this that are very flexible in scheduling include Fancy HandsBoldly, and Time Etc.

This post has a list of the more flexible phone jobs you can apply for.

And if you are looking for remote phone jobs that pay better, these phone jobs pay $20 or more hourly.

The BEST way to guarantee you are in control of your own hours is to run your own business or side gig. This way, you don't answer to much of anyone and you decide when you are and aren't working.

Below are a couple of things that are cheap and easy to get going with that you could start up and do entirely on your own time:

  1. Thanks for the great list. Working from home when the kids are in school is so nice because you can still take time off to help at school, go on field trips, etc. I worked for Pearson before and enjoyed it, but when they’re busy, they’re busy!
