I recently began a language exchange with my coworker. In the beginning, she gave me a nice Korean 1 book (I have studied some, but still at a basic level).

She already has an English book she want to work on, mostly about conversation and also wants to do free-talking. I'm thinking I should get her something though along the lines of an English book.

Any ideas?

Thanks Radius, but this is the one time I think it won't happen.

She is 10 years older than I. She is married with a kid (ok, ok I know that might not always be an eliminating factor). Her kid is my student. I have a girlfriend. In the year and a half that I've known her, I've never felt attracted to her. The exchange takes place on break between classes. Laughing

Wink
well you can, yea, yawn, get her the English book. I know its boring, but get her a conversational one though. Sorry, im not good on giving advice for gift giving. Im the type that if my friends or family dont tell me exactly what they want for a gift, they arent getting anything. I cant choose a gift to save me life. Confused

A nice novel or just a book in english would be nice (assuming that she enjoys reading and is at that level).
