After reading many articles I found this one very helpful.

Not a lot is actually known about William Shakespeare, which leaves a lot for us to wonder about. Some even wonder about the truth of his whole existence. It is a common belief, however, that he is one of the greatest when it comes to dramas.
I feel like the thought of Shakespeare as a student is a little intimidating because of the language. As I grew older in studying Shakespeare I did discover more to his personality that made his works a little less difficult and a little humorous. I get more of the hidin jokes and puns in his work but I do still struggle with completely understanding the language.
