Hi Venezuela,
could you be a bit more specific? What exactly do you need? What kind of course is it? What is the aim? Is the level of the student(s) mixed? Is there a course outline already - subjects to teach, like telephoning ect.? Are the beginners total beginners or rather false beginners? ...
I�ve got materials and lots of links. Maybe I can help you. Check the materials you can find here as well.
I found the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) a useful guideline for diagnostic tests independent from the subject. Google it. You can get a grid for English and Portuguese and other European languages.
P.S. Thanks for finally writing in English. It�s not funny to see a message asking for help and then not being able to understand it.

Hello Mietz,
Yes, sorry for that.
Well, I need material for teach "false beginners", The course is business english or commercial English, but this students are elementary level, their ages are between 16 and 18 years old i think. I don�t feel confident...
I teach children in a primary school and this is very diferent for me...
For Friday I need a diagnostic test, but basic level. I need materials worksheets, lessons plans, tests etc...
I will check.
Thanks a lot for help me!

Hi,
I usually start with the Alphabet and spelling exercises, spelling e-mails etc. They need that in Business English for spelling addresses etc. Practise telephone numbers as well for starters. Then I go on to office equipment - articles, there is/ there are... (see worksheet).
To teach the Simple Present "Daily Routines" in an Office are good. There are plenty of worksheets about this on this site here.
I�ve used the book "Business Basics" by Oxford University Press sometimes. It�s quite good, but maybe too high.
If you want to leave your e-mail here, I might be able to mail you some stuff during the day (Wednesday...).
You�ll be fine! You�ve taught before. You are experienced. Just don�t treat them like Primary children. The rest will work out!
