Are you intimidated by the thought of teaching Shakespeare? 

You’re not alone. 

A lot of people struggle to connect to Shakespeare’s work, even if they really want their kids to be familiar with his plays. 

What if I told you there's a way to make teaching Shakespeare to your kids enjoyable for them…

…AND delightful for you? 

In today’s episode, Ken Ludwig, celebrated playwright and author of How to Teach Your Children Shakespeare, argues that the reason so many of us feel like we don’t get Shakespeare is because people don’t know why (or how!) to teach it.
