This is tutoring. You teach Excel one-to-one or in a tiny group for retailers living in a shoebox of receipts. Students or parents pay about $40–$90 per hour. A marketplace can find the first students; your own calendar keeps more of the fee. A normal lesson is a warm-up, one concept, one piece of homework, and a simple progress log. Show up prepared and on time. A certificate helps in some markets; reviews and a clear method matter more.
Zoom, a calendar, and a payment link. Preply / Superprof profiles are free. A headset is $0–50. First student commonly 1–4 weeks (Preply).
Each required material has a matching shop listing — photo, price, and a way to add it to the cart.
Video setup or a quiet table
Work table
A sturdy work table for packing, mending, or a quiet video setup. A table, not a full studio.
Whiteboard or shared doc
A shared whiteboard/doc workspace with a kickoff board. Software access the same day.
Timer
Kitchen or shot timer
A magnetic kitchen/shot timer with a loud ring. For dough, dye, and session blocks. Not a smartwatch.
Payment link
Payment link kit
Stripe/PayPal setup notes and a payment-link template so a customer can pay without emailing for a price. Not a merchant account by itself.
Public examples matched to this path by what they actually publish — not endorsements, and not a claim they run this exact shop. Handles change. Verify before you write to anyone.
