Finished Headway for Beginners - what next???
Posted: 09 Jun 2009, 02:03
On the recommendation of someone on this site I used Headway for Beginners with a group of very basic (adult) learners at my place of work here in Thailand.
I have to say it was very successful, and I've used it now on about 5 separate groups.
The problem now is where to go next. - Can anyone recommend a good text-book????
I'm not familiar with the Headway series but it seems that the next book could be either Elementary OR Elementary "Third Edition" -
what's the difference between New Headway and New Headway "third Edtion"? They are available on the same selves in the places I've looked.
Furthermore, they really don't seem to take the learner that much further than the Beginners' book - would it be worth skipping the "elementary" all together and going on to "pre-intermediate"?
I also have used Interchange extensively and was considering starting them on Book 1 - (omitting the Intro book).
Have you got a good idea for a text-book? I'm teaching adults in their workplace, so anything from conversation to business English could be considered.
Thanks.
