If you are self-employed, then you need to pay the $15.3% FICA tax on your net income. I do not know why this wasn't calculated on your prior returns. You must enter you income in the self-employed section of TurboTax before entering it in the foreign earned income exclusion section.
If you have no foreign tax that you paid on your income and you do not qualify for the foreign earned income exclusion, then there is no reason to enter the income as foreign income on your return.
If you did not track the tutoring income you received, all you can do is to estimate the amount of income you received and enter that income as self-employment income. Did you have any expenses to help offset your income? You can claim mileage, supplies, home office deduction, etc if they apply to you. You will need the Self-Employment version if you wish to claim deductions.
