prep time
Before the lesson
Prep time is the period spent preparing before the main activity begins.
In cooking, it's the time needed to gather and ready ingredients before actual cooking starts: The recipe has thirty minutes of prep time.
The term extends to any advance preparation: I need some prep time before the meeting.
