Teacher Discussion Forums

can anybody suggest a website with materials specifically for teaching English to beginners working at a travel agency?
or a book?
Thank you

I don't know if there is anything in this thread, but you can take a look while you wait to see if anyone else adds something: http://www.eslcafe.com/forums/teacher/v ... php?t=1172

Ciao Everybody

My name is Antonio and I am supposed to be teaching
Tourism English to some farmers wives in the
AgroTourism Business, in Italy, starting Jan 20th. I
would defiantly be interested in any information and
help anybody may have.

I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Hi, everyone! Try this website: http://www.eslgo.com/classes/travel/. It has free English lessons for travel and tourism. Looks good.

It's kind of promotion, though...

It's a game and lesson rather than a course, but can I recommend my Air Travel English lesson on the onestopenglish site:

Also not a textbook, but I've put a list of free resources on my blog:
