English textbooks and teaching English to Germans
Hey all,
I'm about to start teaching a German beginner with no prior knowledge of English. Can anyone recommend an interesting and proven course to use? It should include student and teacher's books, perhaps a workbook and some kind of audio media (preferably CDs).
His aim is everyday conversation as well as holiday English.
There are so many courses on the market, I don't know where to start! Naturally, one aimed German learners would be best.
Also, if anyone knows of any contrastive guides of English and German (in either language), I'd be very interested to hear.
Thanks in advance for any good advice
Cheers!
Edward

You haven't mentioned how old he is. However, as you mention holiday English I imagine that he is an older teenager or adult. In both cases I've found English File (1,2 and 3 at least) to be very useful and interesting.
