The Mira Costa Library offers free tutoring after school from 3 P.M. to 5 P.M. Monday through Thursday. These hours are generously funded by the PTSA.
The County of Los Angeles Public Library System offers online Live Homework Help in a wide range of subjects. You do need a library card from the Manhattan Beach Public Library or the Hermosa Beach Public Library to participate in this service. You can get a card by downloading the pdf form, filling it out, and bringing it to the library. Your parents don't need to come with you to get a card, but you do need a parent's signature (in person) in order to access to the library's public Internet computers.
