educable

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'ready to learn' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'anyhow be a clued' is the wordplay.
'anyhow' is an anagram indicator.
'be'+'a'+'clued'='beaclued'
'beaclued' is an anagram of 'EDUCABLE'.

'being' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for educable that I've seen before include "Capable of being taught" , "Able to be trained" , "can take in information" , "as good students should be" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
