Thumbs up Textbooks for teaching English to children

If anyone is teaching English to children, I would definitely recommend the Let's Go series. The different levels are Let's Go Starter, Let's Go 1, Let's Go 2 and Let's Go 3.

I used all these books now and the methodology is excellent. The children love them and the pretty pictures. There are also songs mixed in with the lessons.

A Workbook comes with the set to complement the Student Book. I usually do 2 pages in the Student book in classtime, and assign the corresponding 2 pages in the Workbook for homework.

Any questions, let me know!

Yes, these books are very good. I use them to when teaching English to my younger students. They also come with a set of flashcards which the children love.

Do you know any good books for older students? Most of my children ranged from age 10 to 15, and I can never seem to find really good books for them. The younger grade level books are to simple and babyish for them, yet the high school levels are too hard and boring. I'd love to hear some ideas.

New Interchange Series

Hello LeahSimms,

Try the New Interchange Series. There are a few different levels for these, but I would think level 1 (the red book) would best suit your students. Your students would need to have good reading skills however in able to use this text.
