I'm sure that many (myself included) would be happy to help out, but
due to timezone differences, working hours, etc you may only get
responses up to 24 hours (or more) later.

What needs does your (non-face-to-face) group have that would not be
met by posting questions to the Python Tutor list?

http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor

Perhaps you and your co-learners can sign up to that list, and
coordinate with that list's users to use your wiki, messaging
services, etc?

Personally I learned Python from the Python docs (starting with the
tutorial), practice, and Google. Dive Into Python is good too.

David.
