2 jobs in one Tax year April 2018 to April 2019

Hi I got a question regarding the tax free allowance for 2018/19 (£11859 according to Listentotaxman.com)

Is this the amount you can earn without any tax being added

I started a job before part time paid no tax and from April 2018 to end of September I earned £4000 from there. Which means I still have just under £8k tax free allowance?

In my new job, I am earning around £300 before tax and it is a temp job not full time but I am expected to stay hill until May at least.

So say £400 a week after tax is around £337 there is about 7 months say 28 weeks left till next tax year in April

So £337 after tax * 28 weeks - £9436 which means I might have to be emergency taxed for some weeks to reach the 11859 quota?

Or will they found £400 before tax * 28 weeks and take more emergency tax

Is it before tax or after tax the £11859 tax allowance?

Many thanks

The allowance is how much you can earn before tax is deducted. That's why it's called a tax free allowance. They don't deduct tax from it in order to work out your tax free allowance.
National insurance, however, is separate, and you will have to pay that, although not much.
