    Shakespeare is fantastic, the way his works are taught to students now, is horrible. I’ve come across many kids that think the extent of poetry is Shakespeare, and they find him boring… Because his plays are meant to be seen, not read and analyzed. Schools take the fun out of his plays and out of poetry in general. I know its not what you are looking for, sorry, but I couldn’t help it.

    He obviously didn’t affect [sic] your English class much.

    There are more than 10 grammatical or orthographic errors in your question. Before you try to teach people why Shakespeare is so important, perhaps you should teach yourself how to write correct English.
