I would recommend tutoring over substitute teaching. Tutoring is usually done one on one or in small groups with people who want or need to improve. It can definitely be super rewarding for everyone involved! Also, it's going to be more flexible hours and if you are having a rough patch you can back out for a while and return later.

Substitute teaching can be tricky, as you sometimes get hostile or angry or confrontational students - or even worse, groups of students. I am a teacher, and I have experience as a substitute. I have seen many teachers reduced to tears by groups of bored resentful kids who have found the weak point and picked away until they got a big reaction. I'm not talking about tough schools either, just your run of the mill American suburbia. It seems to me that this might be particularly tough on someone with schizophrenia.

But tutoring - that sounds like it would be awesome! If you want to get paid to do it, target something that people really need like math, reading, or college exam prep.
