This is a home job. Home jobs like this are in high demand in Australia these days. What courses, subjects or languages are you good at ? What are your qualifications or experience as a teacher? As a student yourself, you should be good in your related field of study. Courses like Mathematics, Biology, and Sciences, in general, are highly demanded by home teachers, especially for kids in their early stage of education including high school kids. What is required to take these jobs usually is just your qualifications, skills and experiences. Depending on where you are working, the wage for this job is typical $20- 25 dollars an hour. I got $25 in my experience. The easier way to find such jobs is signing up with Airtasker . You can also find these jobs via Indeed, SEEK, Jora and Jooble.org

#2 Data Entry

Data entry is a good earning side hustle for a student in Australia. This job involves lots of typing and extreme caution. Formal computer training may be advantageous for this though. This online job demands attention to detail, basic computer literacy and familiarity with various computer programs such as MS Office. It also requires knowledge of grammar and punctuation, and the ability to work to time constraints as you must be a fast typist. This home job is however good, as the working time is usually very flexible. It is easy to find data entry jobs in many Australian search engines such as Indeed, SEEK, Jora, Jooble.org

#3 Food Delivery/Delivery Man.

Unlike many other countries, this is a well-paid job for a student in Australia. A part-time job as a food delivery man in Australia will pay you up to $19-$25 dollars an hour. I had a friend who once did this it and he had a really good experience. He worked with Menulog and luckily for him the company was signing up new workers with $200 at that time as a campaign to get more workers and free police background checkups and delivery bags. Sign up here for Menulog if you are interested in delivery with them.
There are many delivery companies in Australia where you can work as a student and save some dollars. The most common ones are uberEats, Menulog etc...

#4 Bars, restaurants, hotels jobs

As an international student in Australia, you can equally get part-time jobs in the hospitality industry. These are high pay student jobs. You can work as a waiter in a restaurant, disher, cook etc or serve beers and drinks in bars, pubs, casinos, hotels etc.. or work as a barista in coffee shops etc. The minimum wage for these jobs is usually from $19 to $32, especially on weekends. However, working in the hospitality industry in Australia requires some Working certificates such as RSA and RGS which are very easy to get, no stress!.

#5 Social Health Care

Another sector or industry that takes in a lot of international students and with good pay is the social health care sector. This involves disability, age and childcare jobs. This is a steadily growing area in Australia and is always in demand for workers. The pay in this sector is also very good. Minimum wages usually range between $20-$32 and even more for night and weekend shifts. However, to work in any of these sectors requires you to do some background check-ups and obtain some minimum Working certificates

Australia has a lot of big shopping centres and really big supermarkets. Most of these big supermarkets often recruit a lot of international students. It's a nice place to get a part-time job as an international student in Australia. Jobs here range from retail jobs to shop support, distribution jobs etc... I personally never worked here, however, I had a lot of friends who worked here and really profit from some given privileges. Why not give it a try. Plus the pay is pretty awesome also.
The jobs are easy to get and always open. The companies will always advertise these jobs on their websites or common job search engines such as Indeed, SEEK, Jora
