You should probably post on jobs.perl.org. I think they allow this kind of thing (paid tutor as opposed to contract/job). If you're very specific about what you want to learn, what you can afford to pay, etc and so on, you'll get better responses.	[reply]

If you really want to learn Perl you may even find someone willing to impart their knowledge for free; I'm always a fan of helping out someone who genuinely wants to know something new (be it Perl or some other subject). On the other hand, if you're just trying to pass a uni/college course I'd encourage you to have a strong think about whether you're doing what you really want to be doing..	[reply]

IRC is often helpful if you have specific questions to ask, I'm sure people won't mind you paypal'ing them a couple of dollars... (specifically when their local dollar is at a 5 year low) `@_=qw; ask f00li5h to appear and remain for a moment of pretend better than a lifetime;;s;;@_[map hex,split'',B204316D8C2A4516DE];;y/05/os/&print;`	[reply] [d/l]
