>>I am just getting started with the whole Visual Studio, .NET, C#, Silverlight, CSLA.NET (preferably), TDD thing and have a couple projects I need to start on. I have been developing software in Windows for the past 19 years (mostly using Visual FoxPro!) and have spent a few weeks studying the CSLA.NET framework and Expert C# 2008 Business Objects book and need to get up and running quickly.

>>I would like someone who would be able to help me remotely (using TeamViewer/Skype preferably). I am based in Trinidad (my time zone is GMT -4) and would need someone who would be available for one or two hours a day, a couple times a week between my hours of 8am to 4pm. We can set a scheduled time for "discussions" if preferred.
