    Description

    Hi!

    We are a family of two living in Istanbul. I’m a nurse, and my husband runs his own business. We live in a modern residential complex in the Halkalı Atakent area.

    I am currently preparing for a medical exam in English and am looking for a female volunteer who can help me practice and study. It would be wonderful if you have a healthcare background or are studying in a related field, but it’s not absolutely necessary. Good English skills are important.

    In exchange, we can provide free accommodation and meals. We only need help for about 5 hours a day, so you will have plenty of free time to relax, explore Istanbul, or enjoy the city on your own.

    We would also be happy to introduce you to Turkish culture, local food, and daily life. We hope to create a warm and friendly environment where you feel comfortable and welcome.

    If this sounds like something you would enjoy, we would love to hear from you!

    Hi!

    I’m looking for a female volunteer to help me prepare for my medical exam, which will be in English.

    It would be great if you are studying in a healthcare-related field or already working in healthcare. I’m looking for someone with very good English skills; native speakers are especially welcome.

    The help needed is around 5 hours per day. In return, I will provide accommodation and meals.

    In your free time, you can explore the city on your own, relax, or, if you’d like, we can spend some time together and show you around.

    If this sounds interesting to you, I’d love to hear from you!
