tutorial session

One-on-one teaching

A tutorial session is a scheduled meeting focused on instruction, typically one-on-one or in small groups.

In academic settings, it's time with a tutor or teaching assistant to review material, work through problems, or get feedback: I have a tutorial session with my TA after lecture.

Software tutorials also divide into sessions—discrete learning segments a user completes in one sitting.
