Look at the roundabout as if it was a clock face. The car is always going in at the 6 o'clock position. You can describe the place to turn (or exit ) as being 9 , or twelve or 3 o 'clock. I hope this helps.
I said this several times on this forum. People talk about right and left turns. All cars exiting a round-a-bout are making a right turn.
