What skills are needed for work at home jobs. (like what would i need to learn)?

Learn how to buy/sell on ebay, I did it for 10 years, LOTS of work. but its a living.

uh, depends on what job you have in mind, but VERY unlikely you'll find a work at home job, especially for something you're new at,

In order to work from home, you need to show that you can work unsupervised and without someone constantly looking over your shoulder. I worked from home for many years and it was great. I actually was more productive at home than when I was in the office. Some people can't handle not being in the workplace, so it certainly isn't for everyone.

depends on what youre doing

Maybe if you're just started to work from home, you can try to be a Virtual Assistant. Virtual assistants are those people who work remotely and provide online business solutions, mostly for small businesses. Virtual assistant tasks aren't just limited to clerical tasks only, they can be administrative support, SEO and marketing, managing social media sites, transcribing data, building or creating sites for clients, PR jobs and more.

So as a start, you probably should consider learning about social media management, creating or building a website, SEO techniques, and keep learning from other freelancing experts either from youtube, freelancing courses like from Filipino Virtual Assistance https://fvaconsultancy.com/fva-academy/, newsletters and so on. 

I hope this might help you a bit to start your start working at home. Good luck!
