Introduction 

Welcome to That’s Right, Finals: English Literature.

This book is part of the That’s Right series intended for Dutch students of HAVO and VWO.
It is particularly useful in Bilingual Education, both as a self-study reading/exercise book and as a classroom textbook/exercise book.

The book is organised in six chapters and 13 sub-chapters with exercises and an index. 

It is intended to be worked through from beginning to end, but also selectively and flexibly, in conjunction with other That’s Right material. It can be used by the whole class or by individual students, for instance in a remedial situation.

Finals: English Literature can be used without a teacher. It can also be used in conjunction with Advanced English Reading. See also our Electronic Learning Environment  - ELO  - www.leeromgeving.com.
