Non-native speaker here: Shouldn't the verb in the title be "prepares" instead of "readies"? Were all the things we learned in the English class this useless?

Either is acceptable as used in the title. English does have a lot of synonyms. There are circumstances where "ready" is the wrong verb to use but "prepare" is not, so I think your English class having you learn "prepare" is the correct choice.
