Essentials in Writing is a comprehensive program that covers writing and grammar as it directly applies to good writing. Lessons are taught by Matthew Stephens, the author, and are short and to the point. Students then apply the lessons through the work in their workbook.

At Level 12, students are headed for college or the professional world and are well on their way to being skilled writers. Sentence structure is the most technical aspect of Level 12, but any remaining bad habits need to be ironed out before students move into the next stage of their lives. Formal paragraphs and essays (descriptive, expository, persuasive, compare/contrast, cause and effect) will have detailed instructions. Level 12 also includes literary response essays as well as a timed essay for college prep and a persuasive research paper as capstone assignments.

Level Twelve will teach:

Sentence Structure - dependent and independent clause; simple, compound, complex, and compound-complex sentences; address sentence errors (fragment, run on, and comma splice), appositives
Formal Paragraph - structure; expository, persuasive, compare/contrast, descriptive, cause/effect, and narrative paragraphs; summary
The Writing Process - in depth study of each part of the writing process; practice the writing process with each multi-paragraph composition
Essays (formal and informal) - detailed instruction and step by step process for expository, process analysis, cause and effect, compare/contrast, response to literature essays; 60-minute essay (college prep)
Research Paper (project) - detailed instruction and step by step process to conduct a research project and write a research paper (Persuasive)

If your plans for the school year also include Essentials in Literature 12, then you can purchase these two courses together in the EIW's English Bundle Level 12 and save a little money.

For those who like to be able to do offline learning, Essentials in Writing is offering DVDs that can be purchased separately. They include all online videos. This is an add-on for the EIW Level 12 online course.
