What do teachers say about this resource? (8300)

I liked the ways into Shakespeare language ideas and the emphasis on becoming a competent and confident reader of the work. It is broken down in such a way as anyone - even a non specialist - could use it as a guide to start teaching the text... This is a gentle and well structured introduction to the play and some of the issues around it that would be helpful for someone who was just starting out. There are some clear worksheets that will guide students through aspects of the text... Presentation is clear and the teacher guidance notes are very clear and specific.
