instructor
Someone who teaches
An instructor is someone who teaches, typically in a formal or structured setting.
The term often implies practical or skill-based training rather than academic lecturing: a driving instructor, a flight instructor, a yoga instructor.
In universities, instructor may denote a teaching position below professor rank.
The instructor demonstrated the technique before having students try it themselves.
