Here is the best resource I know of for in-depth Mauritian Creole lessons.
It is subscription based ($10/month via Patreon.com).

Hello BlueAlila,

You may easily find French tutors around the island. But I am not very sure about Creole tutors

You can try asking around....

But like @ Baburaj M said, the best way to learn a language is to practice it.

You can start by engaging in conversations with the locals. Most of them do speak decent French.

You may also check out the page Language institutions in Mauritius where you will find a list of institutions offering language classes. You could try contacting them.

Good luck,

Yoginee

I speak English & Creole. Perhaps we could organise a group who want to learn & practice Creole. I'm happy to help you all out. Maybe we could make excursions out of it. Eg, shopping, restaurant - so you know how to navigate these things.

@begleitungmitherz I am in the north. If you want to help me organise something for everyone, private message. It would be free & a good way to make friends. Maybe we could all meet at my place & go from there.
