What does “collect” mean for this sentence? The new generation of students for psychology (from beginners) had volunteered for an online teaching course. It all began when I was about 17 years old, and ends now, and ends tomorrow.

With kind regards,
I thought that the word “collect” here means ‘to prepare’ according to the sentence, but the teacher said the word here literally means “to gather something”. What does the word mean? Is it possible that it means the staff collect cars for their customers to use at the requested point, they just prepared the cars and left them for use?

Based on your expectation of “to prepare” and that you think it might mean “to collect the car for the customer to use”, I would agree.
collect in this case probably means “take from where it is located and bring to the store/office/dealership. If
you were already in possession of the car and received this email, I would think they mean collect from you, if you hadn’t yet received a car.
However if you are not in possession of the car, then I think it could mean collect from some location and bring to the store-front
That “some location” is probably an off-site parking lot, another rental location, or a parking lot behind the building.
