                                  LIFE OF A STUDENT AS A FREELANCER (ARTICLE)

As a Vietnamese living and studying in Singapore, money has always been an issue for me. Sure, I have a fair amount of allowance, but with the rising cost of living in Singapore, that amount is not enough for me. Even if I stop going out and just stay at home, all the rent, food, electricity and water, and more, are still going to slap me in the face. I can’t even save any.

So, I turned to freelancing. I started building my resume and uploaded it onto freelancing sites. My first job came last August at a kindergarten, where I edited a video for them. Sooner or later, that job led me to my second gig, in which I got to utilize my video recording skills.

Getting the exposure helped me reassess my skill set, thus I realized I can do so much more. From photography and videography, designing and editing, I broadened my service to writing. I wrote articles, blog posts, copy and ultimately, screenwriting. Then, I also proofread and edited people’s writing pieces. If you want to know, my Vietnamese also contributes to my translating jobs.

When I heard about Upwork, I knew this was going to be such a huge help. Before Upwork, I accepted every job I got an offer for, no matter where they came from. But now, I find most of my work on Upwork. Since clients on Upwork come from all over the world and I’m mostly stationed in Singapore or Vietnam, most of my work is done online. I also stopped receiving jobs on photography and videography, since they require my physical presence and most clients in this field are not from my area.fiverr considered as one of the best platforms for freelancing.
