Tutor for pyvmomi (vsphere sdk in python)

The deliverable is up to 10 hours of tutoring me and contributing to a automation
program.

Background:
I am a student in an IT class where we get to help solve campus IT problems as a final project for our degree. I chose to help the IT department automate one of their VMware tasks. So, I have to create a python program that creates a specified number of identical VMs, in vSphere, using the pyvmomi sdk. I have started writing one using the sample scripts provided in the pyvmomi-community-samples collection and the documentation. However, I am currently stuck on troubleshooting an error with the createvm_task method. I would like to have a tutor help me through troubleshooting this issue that im stuck on now and help with any future problems.

I must deliver this program by first week of next month.
I will share my attempt at writing the program with shortlisted candidates. Also, the error message it gives when trying to run it.
