Best Summer Jobs for High School Students
Working during the summer when school is out of session is a great opportunity for teenagers to make money and gain valuable workplace experience.
Restaurant Server
Food and drink service jobs are plentiful. Although average base pay is poor, workers who carts tips can do well for themselves. And some national chains have the resources to pay more Starbucks employees can earn about $12 per how on average, and may qualify for a benefits package that includes health insurance.
Grocery Store Worker
Grocery store jobs are also relatively plentiful. Although most grocery employees don’t earn tips, base pay is generally above the federal minimum wage—about $12 per hour. Jobs that require workers to operate heavy machinery are inaccessible to workers under age 18. Grocery store employees typically work in shifts, with part-timers polling four to eight hours at a stretch. Peak shopping hours tend to fall on weekends and early evenings.
Tutor
If you’ve already taken and done well on standardized tests like the SAT or ACT, you can help these students and earn decent pay as a tutor. Tutor pay varies by specialty, experience, and educational attainment. Tutors who themselves are high school students or recent graduates aren’t likely to earn much more than the national average rate of S18 per hour.
Career-Track Intern(实习)
Even if you haven’t yet decided what you want your “rear” career to be, high school summers offer the perfect opportunity to test a job you think you’ll like. Summer internships are often unpaid, forcing students to consider whether the opportunity is worth the cost. That’s likely to come down to the value of the experience and the connections that could land you a higher-paying, career-track job down the road.

Good evening everyone!
I hope to pick your brain on potential advertising strategies and gaining new customers for my boyfriend’s car repair shop.
He has been in business for 3 years and is fairly successful, but we are trying to increase the number of chargeable hours. While he was doing repair work, I took over all the administrative duties. The first thing on my to-do list was to get him on social media. I was floored that he had no social media presence, which is not surprising considering he is old school.
Now, he has a business Facebook page and an Instagram account, although it may not be worth much yet. We are working on a weekly “feature” for both platforms in order to create some interest.
He doesn’t want to do coupons (优惠券) or discounts or anything like that, and I understand why. His labor rate is already significantly lower than anyone else in the area, and his overall costs are lower as well. This is where I am a bit lost — how can we effectively attract more customers without a hook? My guess would be focusing on the value, but I’m not sure how well that will work out.
We are considering sending postcards as well since he already cooperates with a few local shops who send their large jobs to him and such. However, I am unsure about Facebook marketing, but definitely open.
【小题1】What was scheduled first to promote business?A.Working out a weekly feature. | B.Increasing chargeable hours. |
C.Establishing his presence online. | D.Visiting his old school. |
A.By raising labor rates. | B.By offering discounts and coupons. |
C.By cutting overall costs. | D.By highlighting the value of services. |
A.To offer information. | B.To seek advice. |
C.To show advantages. | D.To find cooperation. |
