If she did not receive a W-2, she should enter her income as foreign earned income.
She may be able to exclude part of her foreign earned income if she was not in the US for more than 35 days in ANY 12 month period. So if she only had 35 US days from March 2018 to March 2019, she could tax a partial exclusion for 2018. The full exclusion for 2018 is $103,900.
If she does not qualify for the foreign earned income exclusion, the software will still keep track of her foreign wages not reported on a W-2. Then she should go to the foreign tax credit (I'll give instructions below) section of TurboTax to enter her foreign wages and foreign tax.
To enter her foreign income, type in foreign income in the search box at the top of the screen. Click the Jump to foreign income link. This is where you need to enter her foreign wages. https://www.irs.gov/individuals/international-taxpayers/yearly-average-currency-exchange-rates
