### 5/5 — Great companion for my Shakespeare class

*2022-04-11*

I was intimidated when I first signed up for Shakespeare, but this app has helped me tremendously. The summarization on the left side definitely gives me a better understanding of what is going; in addition, the summaries are very helpful.

### 5/5 — Lifesaver!

*2014-11-19*

This all is such a lifesaver! I need to read Othello for my English course and this app enables me to read the play AND understand it not only in a shorter amount of time (I don't have to constantly look up words or browse SparkNotes for help), but with a good understanding of what's going on! I'm so glad I found this! :)) Thank you! Hopefully I'll be able to find other texts like this in the future.

### 5/5 — Great!!

*2012-04-18*

This has big help for me, great to be able to listen and follow along with the text.
