A Vision for Student Success
I believe every student has the ability to reach ambitious academic goals and build a strong foundation for their future when given the right support. Success is not the result of talent alone, but of clear information, a realistic plan, and consistent guidance. My work is grounded in the belief that students make better decisions when they understand their options and the pathways available to them. When those decisions are informed and intentional, they create opportunities that can shape a lifetime.
I am Keren Boateng-Mensah. My mission is to help students and families approach education with confidence and clarity, so that every choice they make moves them closer to their goals.
A Global Academic Journey
My academic path began at The Roman Ridge School in Accra, Ghana, where I completed my A Levels. Eager to expand my academic and professional perspective, I moved to the United Kingdom to study law, earning First Class Honours from Keele University. I continued my legal training at BPP University in Manchester, completing the Barrister Training Course with a Very Competent grade, and was called to the Bar of England and Wales.
Driven by a commitment to academic excellence, I pursued a Master of Law (LLM) at the University of Cambridge, graduating with an Upper Second-Class result. Each step in this journey strengthened my belief that education, when approached with the right preparation, can open doors to exceptional opportunities in any field.
Guiding Diverse Ambitions
Throughout my career, I have worked with students who bring a wide range of interests, abilities, and aspirations. As a mentor with the Cambridge African Mentorship Programme, I supported applicants to some of the world’s most respected universities, and several of them went on to secure offers. Seeing these students achieve their goals reinforced what I had long observed: talent alone is not enough. Without personalised guidance and a clear strategy, even the most capable students can fall short of their potential.
These experiences deepened my commitment to providing the kind of support that helps students navigate critical academic decisions with confidence. Whether their goals lie in the sciences, the arts, business, or professional fields, I focus on creating strategies that reflect who they are and where they want to go.
