My daughter is 6 years old. I hope she can learn English well. But i'm not sure what kind teaching material is proper. Would anybody recommend a certain textbook or someting useful? I also need some ideas on English teaching for my daughter. Thanks.

.
For six-year-olds use story books. The bookstores should have graded ones, all the way from 'See Jane' on up. If you speak English, even a little, speak to her-- make it the language of the household if you live in a non-English speaking country. This is better than a multitude of books.

Hi Vaok,

If you go to the main ESL book publisher websites you can download sample pages and see whether you like the style of the book.
For full book downloads of varying scan standards you can download thousands of ESL and non-ESL e-books at http://www.englishtips.org click on the British flag and register. After that search for the book and click on download now. If you look in the comments you can find mirror download sites, rapidshare has a particularly difficult verification code process so other sites are easier to download from.

Good luck and let me know if I can be of any more help.
