De finale – on to the NT2 II State Examination
Since 2007, De finale has been a trusted name among students preparing for the NT2 State Examination – Program II. This completely revised edition builds on that solid foundation, with a fresh design, current themes, and updated exercises that perfectly meet the needs of modern NT2 students.
De finale has been specially developed for theoretically educated students who want to progress from language level B1 to B2. The method is ideally suited for classroom use, but thanks to its clear structure and explanations, it can also be used independently.
About the revision
- Eight topical and relevant themes with varied exercises for all language skills: reading, listening, writing, and speaking.
- Authentic texts of varying length, subject matter, and style that bring the language to life.
- Variety in teaching methods—from structured fill-in exercises and multiple-choice questions to more open-ended assignments such as discussions and presentations.
- A clear appendix at the back of the book with practical language help and grammar, directly linked to the course material.
Most of the texts and exercises are completely new. Old listening passages from the State Examination have been replaced; for exam training, please refer to the current practice exams at www.staatsexamensnt2.nl.
