tutelage
Learning under supervision
Tutelage is guidance or instruction, especially from a mentor or teacher: Under her tutelage, he became a skilled pianist.
The word carries a sense of protective oversight—someone learning under another's watchful care.
It can also refer to the state of being under a guardian's control, as with a minor or dependent.
