No! As long as you are motivated, TFLA welcomes you :). We and the students appreciate having you. Please refer to the "First time tutoring?" section below for advice as a new tutor.

Sessions are in-person at the USC campus. Specific location and room details will be sent via email to parents.
What's the absence policy?
​
We encourage you to come to all our sessions so you and your tutee can form a relationship and have productive sessions. But absences are fine, as long as you report them in advance!
When are the sessions?
​
The dates vary by semester, but we meet most Saturdays from 10:00 am-11:30 am.
First time tutoring?
Our student range between K-12, though we are currently only taking 2nd graders through 12th graders under our Zoom format. Typically, we help our student on whatever they're working on in school. They usually come in with homework and we guide them as they do it.
If your student doesn't come with any homework to do, that's okay! We have lots of worksheets sorted according to grade level and subject. Assess what your student is doing in school right now, or a topic they might need more practice in and choose a corresponding worksheet. If we get a little tired of doing worksheets all session, you can switch over to some fun educational games for a change of pace.
