  Description

  We are a young and dynamic family of four. I am a university professor, and my spouse is a managing attorney. Our daughter is 9 years old, and our son is 4. We would love to welcome you into our home as a big sister to help improve our children's English during the 1-2 months we will be staying either at our home in Çekmeköy, Istanbul, or at our summer house in Milas.
  
  Our expectation is for you to engage with the children in various activities such as playing games, having conversations, and reading books, sometimes individually and sometimes together, to enhance their daily English speaking skills. The children already speak English. As their mother, I will always be around to support you during the summer.

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  Our place has a pool and is close to transportation routes, so we can easily explore the city. Also we love to show you around . Even though there won't be many students in the summer, you can visit my university and meet some students. In September, the kids will be in school, so you can explore different places during the day.
  Feel free to let me know if you need any further adjustments!
