This fits in nicely with the kinds of things I do. The usual
arrangement is a regular (eg weekly) meeting via videoconference, for
which I'd give you an invoice; in between times, you'd be
studying/practising on your own. Code review is one of the most
efficient uses of our time, so if you spend a few days or a week
working on a piece of code, we can discuss the results of that.

Contact me off-list if you're interested in more information,
including the sordid details.
