About
A practical place to begin.
Be Study Ready is a preparatory course for capable learners who want a clearer way back into study, especially when expectations are not always made explicit.
Why this exists
Over many years of teaching and supporting adult learners, I’ve seen the same pattern repeat. People don’t struggle because they lack intelligence or motivation. They struggle because study comes with unspoken expectations.
Expectations about how to read efficiently, how to organise work, how to write academically, and how to recover when confidence dips. When those expectations remain invisible, capable learners often assume the problem is personal.
Be Study Ready responds to that gap. It focuses on making expectations visible and manageable early, before uncertainty turns into self-doubt or disengagement.
What Be Study Ready prioritises
Dignity
Learning gaps are treated as structural, not personal. The course assumes capability and respects where you’re starting from.
Clarity
Guidance is practical, explicit, and written in plain language, with one step building logically on the next.
Integrity
The course supports ethical study practices and protects your authorship, including clear boundaries around academic integrity and AI use.
About the course
Be Study Ready is an independent, preparatory course. It doesn’t replace universities or promise outcomes it can’t control. It focuses on readiness, skill-building, and clear expectations, so learners can engage more confidently with what comes next.
A clear boundary
This course won’t do the work for you. It will make the work clearer, more structured, and easier to approach responsibly.
Free to explore, no pressure.
