I'm a Head of EAL Department at a school in Vietnam, and have worked in China trying to find what Prabha has asked for, standarized testing for ESL kids at young ages.

The problem with TESOL is that it's adult-biased. And yes the Young Learners from Cambridge is pretty good, but you'll have to supplement it with other stuff too.

The problem is that with young learners you have all sorts of developmental issues to be mindful of. Teaching contractions to a 8 year-old probably isn't the best idea, that sort of thing.

Basically, the answer is no. You'll have to be creative. ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/27682568 Ideas: A History of Thought and Invention, from Fire to Freud (Paperback) by Peter Watson
