Has to be said he would be a brilliant teacher. You need charisma and genuine presence that isn't just shouting in a classroom. You basically need to get kids attention just by being interesting. I remember having an English teacher and a religion teacher who were both funny guys, but also knew a lot, and were fun and interesting to talk to, which made you learn because everything they said was aimed to teach. At that stage kids are too interested to play up, so discipline doesnt matter as much

she is brilliant for getting up and reading. well done!!

Yes at that age I didnt get the bard either,until I saw Richard the 3rd with Olivier on vhs,peoples thoughts spoken as well off the page,craignz

I can barely understand the chubby kid who keeps saying he can't understand Shakespeare.

This person is gem

The girl who reads the poem is a star.

Estuary english must be the worst accent in the UK. Do they actually try to sound thick and ignorant?

How interesting!

I bet those boys aren't giggling now that they're sweeping up burger wrappers at 2am.

I thought you liked *all* animals, Mr. Ventura.

Is it just me or are the students sitting there behaving in a very childish and rather rowdy way?

20:00 So begins the worst butchering of Shakespeare I've ever heard.

I wish that blonde was in my class.

WITH THE prozac and Zoloft yada yada.... It is important to remind the world of the movie "THX1138", the first movie made by George Lucas in 1970.......... As is very relevant to brave new world and others that contained and pacified the "Classes", i.e. the rich and the poor........ Through drug consumption and drug enforcement by law...... Yes, anyone not stoned, gets reality and insanity instead..... Major accomplishment for a first project student in Hollywood who is Not Jewish.!!!

90% of the information is wasted on this rabble because they can't focus or keep their mouths shut. They should be gagged and bound to their seats.

Callow is out of touch. I appreciate his effort, but it's typical patronising of norm.people. I love how they struggled to think of someone, because they didn't pander to his perception of us wanting to be them. Nonetheless, his Segway to types...rather than people saved his patronising arse.

Why does Shakespeare matter?? BECAUSE IT WAS WRITTEN BY FUCKING FRANCIS BACON!!! OK? FINALLY?? HAS THE WORLD GOT IT YET????
