Subject: Teaching English to adults

I have been requested to teach a learning disabled, 30-year-old learning 
disabled adult. She has little knowledge of reading and wants to expand her 
reading knowledge and to increase her vocabulary.
I have looked at books that I have intended for remedial teaching - Goals 1 
and Goals 2, the Entry Point series - but have found them to be too childish 
for an adult. I have not found a good subsitute on the ECB website. On the 
UPP website I found the book "Chance" by Susie Russak, however, I know it is 
a rather old book.
Does anyone have a recommendation for a good textbook for this purpose that 
would not be too childish or insulting for a 30-year-old? Would it be better 
to look for a book published in Israel or to look for books published 
abroad?

Thank you.

Best regards,
Hadas
