Wages are reported on your W-2 and are not entered on Schedule C. Income that is reported can be called several thing; self-employment, independent contractor, or non-employee compensation. There are two ways to enter your income on Schedule C, depending on whether or not you had a 1099-Misc.
HOW TO ENTER without a 1099-MIsc
You can enter the words, "self employed income" in the search bar and click FIND.
When asked "Did you have any self-employment income or expenses?" select Yes
You'll see the screen titled "Tell us the type of self-employment work you do." Enter your description, then Continue
On the next screen "Let's get income for [description]" select the button Additional income. Includes 1099-K, check/cash payments and Continue
The next screen will say "Tell us about additional income for your [description] work." List descriptions and amounts on this screen
