What is Macbeths character flaw?
Your teacher will probably say "ambition" but he or she is only parroting generations of teachers. Indeed the idea that people have "character flaws" which determine their characters is a very superficial treatment of how people operate. People are motivated by many factors, some of which come to the fore in reaction to certain stimuli, and some of which contradict each other. In Macbeth's case, he is bullied and cajoled into murdering Duncan by his wife. You might say that his flaw is that he is controlled by his wife, except that, from the moment he commits the murder, she no longer controls him. At that point he becomes paranoid and fearful and, once having crossed the line and having committed murder, there is nothing to prevent him from committing ever more horrific crimes as the play goes on.

What would be the reaction of the Jacobean audience when faced with the witches in Macbeth?
Although the people of that era believed in witches, the witches in Macbeth were very probably not portrayed as frightening. The very silly scenes involving songs and the headwitch Hecate (which were likely not written by Shakespeare, but were written also in the Jacobean Era) make the witches sillier than the fairies in Midsummer Night's Dream, and although these scenes are never played nowadays, there is every reason to think that this was actually how the witches were played at first. This may have been the only way to get them onstage in a time when people would have been genuinely frightened of representations of real witches.
