Hi there
i'm teaching in Suwan and we teach the Lets Go series books. some of the classes are finishing Lets Go 6 and i wondered if anyone could recommend a book to follow this as there isnt a 7.
thanks

It depends on how suited your students were to Let's Go 6. If they were still struggling with some of the things in that book, I would suggest staying with a level 6 book from another series or even dropping to a level five using American English Today. It is a bit tougher than Let's Go in some ways. I like using it as it seems to make a lot of things clear that books like Let's Go only skim over.
There are a lot of Matching the picture to the sentence activities and review of basic grammar. (not as boring as it sounds, I really like using these books)
If their English is better than I suspect, you could try a book like "Get Together" YOu would have to check it out yourself to see which level is appropriate.
I'm sure other teachers will have their preferences, maybe even "
Exploring English" (it's kind of boring though)

Or if you think they are advanced enough, you could try "Can You believe it" (3 books in the series) A lot of idioms, and tough articles to read.

Most Of my students are not ready for that series, although my director has made me use it from time to time.
Anyway, I hope this is helpful to you.
Cheers

Hi
My Hagwan uses Interchange textbooks after the Let's Go series. They are really nice texts, but are a bit of a jump (very small) from Let's Go 6, so you need to take them slow, and I supplement a little with real life stuff to keep it lively.

hope that helps

We're using Winner 4 now. There's a lot of material on one page but if you go slow it seems to be effective.
