Reading through the suggestions, an idea that popped up was to deploy
FSOC (Four Seasons of Code) [1] and register people as
mentors/students. For a sample deployment one can check out the dgplug
website [2].

Shakthi, who is on the list, had worked with Kushal to come up with a
preliminary set of tasks which would do two things : [1] gauge the
level of understanding of the student and, [2] allow a potential
mentor to begin a conversation with the student.
Setting preliminary tasks also help a bit in breaking the ice and
forming good habits. Along with the ability to think smartly the
capability to be able to think in steps, sequentially with tests for
each step is a big thing to coach.
