What educators are saying

I used this to engage students during an AMI day. The kids loved it and wished we would have done it on an in-person day.
I needed an extra resource to familiarise my students with the world of Shakespeare. They all highly enjoyed it, even those who usually struggle or rebel or both :) Thank you!
