Discussion Forum - The Shakespeare Dilemma

Start discussions: 1 Post replies: 3

The very mention of Shakespeare’s name seems to cause a stressful reaction in many students – both native speaking and ESL students.

What do you fear most about reading Shakespeare’s Macbeth? Does having a modern English version, line-for-line help you? Is it too tempting just to ignore Shakespeare’s original text and read the student-friendly translation instead?

Share your thoughts and reactions with the rest of the students enrolled.  Words of encouragement are gratefully welcome.
