Commitments
1 tut a week + preparing for it = 1hr + 1-2hrs a week (approx), can be more during paper correction or if you’re enthu to make slides to make the learning experience more fun for your tutees (i made slides, can check them out on my site )

It was an hour a week and outside that max 1 hour to have a look at the week's tutorial
Overall Experience
I have TA-ed for maths dept and physics, compared to physics in terms of the course content, but it's easier because they don't expect you to check papers. I would suggest if you are interested in abstract math then it wouldn't be too tough
