Whilst I have done some Indonesian courses in OZ,when we were last in Bali I paid one of the beach sellers to teach me some Alus. Paid her the same as for a massage in the hotel. My guess is you could get someone to help with Bahasa Indonesisa, plus you get a better insight into local slang and connect at a different level etc.
