Paid work. It's not the traditional route, it's not easy, in some cases it's not legal and it's not likely for someone on a tourist visa...but it's not impossible either.
basically, people who have student visa can do some part-time work as long as they have permission from their school but they are only allowed specific amount of time, so I guess teaching is an easy way for them to earn money.

The OP is not. Not only is he underage, he is on tourist visa and without a degree yet , he can try but with the current competition for english teachers right now in Japan, it's going to be pretty hard.
