I have an error code Compiler Error CS0103 the name 'transform' does not exist in the current context.

My code seems correct:

using UnityEngine; using System.Collections;

public class FollowCamera : MonoBehaviour {

[SerializeField]
private Transform player;
[SerializeField]
private Vector3 offset;
private float cameraFollowSpeed = 5f;

// Update is called once per frame
void Update () {
    Vector3 newPosition = player.position + offset;

    transfrom.position = Vector3.Lerp (transform.position, newPosition, cameraFollowSpeed * Time.deltaTime);

}

}

You misspelled "transform" as "transfrom" in transfrom.position.

Everything else looks good :)

Hope it helps.

Good luck! ~alex
