SPRINGFIELD, Mo. - Jan. 30, 2015 - PRLog -- Essentials in Writing, a complete language arts DVD teaching curriculum for grades 1-12, was recently named as one of Cathy Duffy’s top picks in her 2015 book, 102 Top Picks for Homeschool Curriculum.Duffy, who has been reviewing thousands of products yearly since 1984, is a curriculum expert whose in-depth reviews are relied upon by home and public school teachers alike.

Essentials in Writing is a complete language arts course presented on DVD by instructor Matthew Stephens.  Each concept is broken up into small, manageable segments which Stephens presets and models compellingly. Stephens teaches directly to students through the DVDs, freeing up parent or teacher time to aid in specific areas of struggle for a highly effective and efficient teaching/learning process.

While geared toward the homeschool, Essentials in Writing is equally beneficial as a tool in the public school setting to help remedial students excel or help advanced student better prepare for college level research and composition writing. The teaching curriculum is also highly valued by charter schools for its thoroughness and affordability. The full Essentials in Writing Course Catalog can be found at Essentials in Writing’s website (http://www.essentialsinwriting.com/?utm_expid=92121813-2....) at (http://www.essentialsinwriting.com/?utm_expid=92121813-2.KaNxoKiMRBS_vIK2gONuIA.0)

Duffy’s review explains, “The combination of DVD lessons and manuals is equivalent in amount of content to other comprehensive language arts courses, and instruction on composition skills is more advanced than in most other programs.”

The review, which can be found here (http://cathyduffyreviews.com/grammar-composition/Essentials-in-Writing.htm ) continues,

“Stephens teaches in increments that are manageable for children to handle, walking students through the steps of the writing process on most assignments. He always models the type of writing students are to do. So while it might be more advanced, it is not more difficult.”

Creator and instructor Stephens called it an honor to be named as one of Duffy’s top picks.

“It is a great honor to be included in the top 102 best picks because many homeschoolers rely on Cathy Duffy's reviews and recommendations when choosing homeschool curricula. It means that the curriculum is highly valued for its content, ease of use, and ability to be used in many educational settings. “
