Paid ROS Tutoring?

Question

Can anyone recommend a personal ROS tutor that has availability 1-2 hours per week for online tutoring? I've taken a few online courses and have read several books on ROS, but want some one-on-one help as well. Can pay an hourly rate. Thanks!

What&rsquo;s ROS? First google result is Robot Operating System (https://www.ros.org/)&hellip;

I don't think this is a thing unfortunately. I can only think of the seasonal ROS Industrial trainings that are quite expensive.
Other than this, most material are available for free, but I would agree no direct pointers.
You have the ros community available for help on answers.ros.org, the discourse for more general questions and finally some slack community like the nav2 managed by Steve Macenski, the main contributor.
The Construct is probably the closest you can get.

I don't know of anyone doing 1:1 ROS tutoring, but here are some other links that might help:
- The Construct (ROS training courses): https://www.theconstructsim.com/
- ROS Discourse (forums): https://discourse.ros.org/
- Foxglove Community Slack (plenty of folks willing to answer questions): https://foxglove.dev/slack

What kind of robots are you interested in? Or is it just about the framework? I&rsquo;ve been working as a ROS consultant for over 3 years now but never properly considered tutoring.You can check out my blog (https://msadowski.github.io/) and if my experience seems relevant then feel free to reach out through email (you will find it on my profile on HN) to see if we can make it work.

I&rsquo;m a PhD student with ~5years ROS experience. What is your programming experience level? Why do you want to learn ROS?

I have a decent amount of ROS experience and could possibly be of service. What are you looking to learn / do specifically?
