Question

I need to write a paragraph about "first" jobs for teenagers. like when a teenager first gets a job, what could it be?

it has to be like almost grown up

i am thinking older people, not still babysitting.

just to tell you, i am a kid

Answer 1

you can write about 'first jobs for teenagers' either (1) based on your personal experience, or (2) on other people's experience.

based on (1) or (2) above, you can write about:
* jobs available for teenagers
* a specific job & what it's all about
* why one took / would take that as a first job
* what knowledge or skills are required to do it well
* specific job-related incidents that demonstrate why having/not having that skill is important
* why one does that job or why one leaves it
* deeper insights or rewarding experiences derived (regrets? what could have been done better? lessons learned? has one gained anything that will help in the future, like choosing a career or a field of specialized study?)

alternatively, you can simply talk about the various first jobs available to teenagers, why employers prefer to give them to teenagers (employers' viewpoint), whether teeners find them rewarding enough, why they want to, what they get out of those jobs, and where they think they can go from there.

just some ideas. hope this helps. good luck!

Answer 2

My first jobs as a teenager were cleaning tables in a café and delivering leaflets. My brother swept hair off the floor at a barber's shop. I also did babysitting and modelling for photo novels in teenager magazines.

The other possibilities would be delivering newspapers, mowing lawns for neighbours, washing cars, etc.

Answer 3

My first job was babysitting. A lot of people mow lawns or deliver newspapers. First jobs in the "real world" are usually working retail in a store, or in a fast food restaurant or a car wash.

Answer 4

A first job for a teenager where the teenager actually pays taxes (like adults do) and recieves a steady paycheck salary would be store clerk or wait staff or fast food crew person.

Answer 5

usually a teenager's first job is:
- for a girl babysitting
- for a guy food delivery

Answer 6

first of all the jobs are according to the capacity and capabilities of the person. It actually depends on the ableness of the worker. For guys, the best job is on restaurants while for girls here in our country, call centers for theirs.... thank you....
