Check local colleges to see if they offer tutoring to students in CS courses. Many universities offer the service free to students, but they still pay tutors.

In some colleges, you can even lecture. That's what I did for a few semesters. However, be warned that preparing a lecture is a LOT of work, and pay is usually not that great.

Its a great experience though,

It's worth noting that at most colleges, the pay is quite low and most of the tutors are older students.

Also, it's less "I'm motivated to learn something on my own and quite intelligent, but don't know how to code" and a lot more "tell me how to do this project so I can drink this weekend."

Yes, the pay is low if you're still a student. It goes up if you've already got a degree, and even more for a graduate degree.

If students ask you to do their projects for them, you can always refuse.
