  Help

  We need someone who will drop off Alp to school and back (5 mins walk from home) school hours Mon-Thurs 09:00-16:00 Fri: 09:00-14:00.We don't expect too much of housework. You will have your own room. We are very positive and pleasant people and expect our guest to have a pleasant attitude.
  
  Paid position is negotiable.
  
  Although I myself am a native speaker, we need some one that can teach Alp English and spend some time together. I am a tour guide and travel frequently so half of the month I am not around. My wife Didem can speak English so there is no language barrier. She works hybrid and may work from home few days of a week. We are very welcoming people and have respect to all cultures and ethnicities. We also expect our guest to respect our culture too. Looking forward to meeting you.
