Candidates with higher qualifications may also get a chance to deliver classes to junior students.

Also, weekends are free, you can look around for some jobs that can be done over holidays to make some extra money; for example, you can mow the lawn or house cleaning, etc.

If you know driving and have a local driving license you can take people for sightseeing and would be pretty exciting experiencing. You will enjoy your holidays while serving travelers to navigate Cuban scenes.

Also you can also manage part time job opportunities outside the campus for example to work for a gas filling station or newspaper delivery etc.

You can find part time work opportunities around campus from local newspaper advertisements, classifieds or social media, etc. Also, senior students and college groups will be helpful in this regard.

Many colleges and universities facilitate internships to the students as a part of their program. Thus, students can also earn through internships while continuing with studies.

When you work part-time for someone this makes to part of your CV and works as a good recommendation when looking for a regular day job even after study.

For part-time jobs although local candidates are preferred but there are no reservations. Anyone can apply for such jobs and earn money in Cuba.
