New player wanting to learn to DM using Roll20

Hi guys, New player here from the UK. I've been trying to find a group for a few weeks now but no such luck. Seems there are very few GMT based groups that I can find on here. Therefore I am considering creating one myself as a DM. I'm very new to the site therefore I would be grateful if there's any kind GMs/DMs out there who would be willing to spare an hour or so and run me through how to use roll20. I know I could use the tutorial, but I'm one of those who learns much quicker when shown what to do. I'm primarily interested in playing D&D 5E so that as a focus would be great. If there are any willing DMs out there, please pm or respond below. Thanks

The  GM Academy is probably the group you are looking for. They are focused on helping people learn to GM games.
Hey Neil, are you needing to learn to DM as well, or are you already experienced with DMing and just need to learn how to use Roll20? I can help you learn to DM, and maybe do some very brief teaching about Roll20, I do not use many Roll20 features so can not show you too much of that, but I teach and mentor GMs on a regular basis (mainly 5e and PbtA, but also Cypher System and others). Drop me a message and we can maybe work something out.
hi Neil, i can help out. had been in a similar situation a year or so ago. drop me a PM, I can run through most of the Roll20 features and even provide a copy of a game for you to play around with
