I have two part-time jobs now. One is a temp worker, the other is a tutor. I don't have a lot of time to work because I have a six period class(from 6:15 p.m. to 7:45 p.m.!!) and a club activity three times a week. I am soooo busy now.(;_;) But I have to get the cost of living. So I found two part-time jobs that have high hourly wages. I will introduce them to you.

Do you know temp workers? Temp workers don't decide one place to work. I work with people who I don't know in various places every time. I often work at some wedding ceremony halls as a waitress. I decided this part-time job because I could work part-time whenever I want to do(only once a month is OK) and the hourly wage was high!! I can earn a hourly wage of 1000 yen. But the job was harder than I expected. First, wedding receptions are so formal. So I can't make any mistakes such as spilling drink over the guests, breaking dishes, forgetting the order. People who work there are very nervous. Second, the dishes used at a wedding reception are heavy. We have to carry three big dishes at a time. I always have muscular pain the following day. However there are also happy things at the job. Wedding receptions always move me. Brides are so beautiful, and a newly married couple look happy. Every time I work at the wedding reception, want to marry soon!!(*´U`*) I put a image of two people wearing a costume of a waitress(waiter). I always wear similar clothes!! The image is by
http://www.servicewear.com/item_page/ITS-AP-042.phpI have the other job as a tutor. I teach a junior high school student all subjects once a week. I can earn a hourly wage of 2000 yen!! I mainly teach English and Math because she is poor at them. When I was a junior high school student, I didn't like Math and was also poor at it. So I can understand her feeling very well!! I teach the subjects as I talk my experience. I think it's important for teaching. Then I found it was difficult to teach another person even if I understand well. So I can learn many things that I didn't know by teaching. But I teach a third grade student, that is to say she is a applicant for a high school. I am anxious whether she passes entrance examinations of high school.
Part-time jobs are hard for students. But we can find how hard it is to earn money and experience working in the society. I think the most important work for children is learning!! So we should work part-time ordinarily(^^;)

Kumi-san,
I would agree with you that part time jobs are hard for students. I used to work ever weekend, so I didn't get to have much fun. Now I don't work the weekends, but I can understand how you feel.
Temp working sounds fun but challenging. I bet you get to see a lot of weddings. It must be nice, I have only gone to 2 my whole life.
I agree that your own experience helps when you tutor. I find that teaching also helps you understand the material because you have to be able to describe what you know to someone who isn't you.
Good luck for you and your student. I hope that she passes the entrance exams.
Hello Jeff(^o^)Thank you for comments!!
Yes, I don't want to work every weekend because weekends are valuable for students. I want to spend weekends with my family or friends. So the temp working is suitable to me. I can choose the days to work.
Do you have any part-time jobs?Please tell me about it.
