<p>Can one tutor more than one class in different departments? For example, can I become a tutor for chem 6ah and music 95w? Will the training process differ? What is a tutors work load? Roughly, how much do tutors make? Thanks in advance.</p>
<p>tutoring (i assume you mean ‘undergrad TAing’) is department-specific. you really shouldn’t be TAing for more than one class – for one thing, one class is enough. and another, you should be focusing on your studies too. </p>
<p>the chem department has requirements/predicted workload/salary on their website. of course, workload varies from class to professor to you – you’ll get a better idea of the job after having taken the class yourself.</p>
<p>when’s the earliest one can begin ta-ing?</p>
<p>I don’t know if this rings true for all department, but for the chemistry department, I assume one would at least need to be a junior. The requirement is one needs at least 90 units under one’s belt. So, the best case scenario would be junior year.</p>
<p>minimum requirements for the chem department are:
- at least a 3.0 overall GPA
- an A- or higher in the course you’re going to TA
- 90 completed units</p>
<p>the 90 units count the ones you transfer in. most people hit this before their junior year. i got to 90 by the end of freshman year, and started TAing winter quarter of my sophomore year.</p>
<p>of course, meeting the requirements isn’t a guarantee that you’ll get the class. getting to know the profs will help out considerably.</p>
<p>You can TA for multiple departments. One quarter I TAed, another one of the TAs for my course was TAing 3 classes. That being said, I don’t think he was a particularly good TA in any of the classes he worked in (a friend of mine was one of his students). I wouldn’t recommend TAing more than one class (like Astrina said)</p>
