Individuals that are wanting to work from home, yet want to pursue in work that uses their experience in the education besides or in addition to tutoring, may find that using their skills as an online test scorer could be a great option. Even if you may not have an education background, you may still be able to do this particular job as long as you have a college degree. Although the position is not year round, usually the work is busy around the spring and summer, you can work it as a second job or just to make some extra income during those times.

What is an online test scorer?

As an online test scorer, you will help grade standardized tests such as the writing and mathematics portion of the tests. You will be working online through the company's platform and there is no phone involved, so this is also a great opportunity for those who prefer non-phone work. The test will be from several different grade levels from elementary schools to college, so it probably can get a bit interesting.

Pay and schedule

Depending on the company, the starter pay as an online test scorer can be a rate of $10 an hour and can increase as long as you meet the standards and performance of the work. As far as scheduled work time, it is flexible and you are able to choose when you are able to work. Each online scoring company does have its own standards that you will need to follow, so it is best to review what you need to qualify and to keep the position.
