Most students in the US are reluctant to study Shakespeare because they do not understand the words. It is like pulling out a spanish or french book and starting to read. If you find a teacher that knows the words and works of Shakespeare, you can get students really involved. A good friend of mine was such a teacher. He would actually leave the classroom and re-enter in costume similar to what you would see in a Robin Hood movie. He would begin reading Shakespeare in a loud and boistruous voice as if performing. Then he would quietly use his normal voice and explain what he read. His student's loved it and it got him teacher of the year.
