I am looking for best English courses for Germans. Be more specific about the versions, please. I know that in general Assimil, Michel Thomas, Linguaphone are good. (Anyway I have some problems to find them online)
Any help appreciated, thank you very much in advance!

I am interpreting from your post, that you are looking for programs towards German speakers learning English. If this is not the case, please rephrase your post for better clarity.

If it is German speakers learning English (ESL), then I can recommend Pimsleur, PONS, Langenscheidt, Hueber. You already wrote down Assimil, but I was unaware that Michel Thomas and Linguaphone had ESL courses for German speakers. This is what I interpreted from your post.
Would you kindly post where you encountered the ESL information for German speakers for these programs?

I do not know whether ESL courses for Germans of Michel Thomas/Linguaphone exist. As you wrote, probably not.
Thank you for your tips, I have not heard at all about Langenscheidt or Hueber.

Not for a language geek, it is for my cousin who worked as an aupair in German (so she is pretty good at German) and wants to start for countless times to learn English. I am looking for something easy to follow, quick and effective. Not long boring classic lessons like FSI.
Thank you for your interest, have you any ideas?
