You go to http://www.FreeBSD.org/tutorials/ where there's a list of tutorials. If you write something, submit it here, preferably in docbook if you know it or have the time to learn it, or text (and someone will convert it to docbook), and someone will read through it, possibly suggest some changes, and will then add it to the document tree. (This list is the hunting grounds of the FreeBSD Documentation Project, so you're at the right place.)
