extra help

More aid needed

Extra help is additional assistance beyond what's normally provided.

In education, it often means tutoring or supplementary instruction: She stayed after school for extra help with algebra.

In workplace contexts, it can mean temporary staff brought in during busy periods: We hired extra help for the holiday rush.
