Shakespeare's work might not be considered to be classic because one has a peculiar definition of the word "classic". If your definition of "classic" is that it was produced by the ancient Romans and Greeks sometime before 400 AD., then Shakespeare does not fit.

What is one reason Shakespeare's work is not considered classic?

Well, that really depends on your definition of classic. There were classics already when Shakespeare was writing, and he wasn't counted as part of them because his work was, then, contemporary and unproven. In the modern day, his work is certainly considered classic by many. Those who do not consider his work to be classic may be of the somewhat snobbish school of literature which considers only the incomprehensible, the multi-cultural, or the disenfranchised to be worthy. And certainly they may be worthy, but in that school neither Shakespeare nor Science Fiction will ever get a fair hearing.
