Docents

/ˈdoʊsənts/ noun

Definition

Plural form of docent; multiple lecturers or guides working at institutions like museums and universities.

Etymology

Kelly Says

Many museums rely heavily on docents because they provide personalized education that guided tours simply cannot match—a docent can spend hours with a single visitor answering deep questions!
