Founder, Director and Principal LANTITE Literacy Tutor:

Elizabeth Nicholls

A testimonial:

‘I had a great experience working with Master Coaching and Tuition. Elizabeth provided the ongoing support through providing me a vast amount of resources at my disposal. She went out of her way to check in and guide me throughout my preparation, which I will forever be grateful for. If you need LANTITE support, you’re getting it from the very best.’ J.

Elizabeth is the driving force and Principal Specialist at Master Coaching and Tuition. With a career defined by academic excellence and a passion for the mechanics of language, she has established herself as one of Australia’s leading LANTITE Literacy tutors.

As the most experienced LANTITE Literacy tutor on the team, Elizabeth doesn’t just teach the content; she has engineered the very strategies used across the firm. She is the creator of the Mastery Logic framework—a high-level approach that has helped hundreds of pre-service teachers move beyond “testing anxiety” to achieve the Standard in their LANTITE Literacy Examinations.

Expertise Born from Experience

Elizabeth’s background is a unique blend of secondary English, EAL (English as an Additional Language) and high-performance training. Her experience as a classroom teacher and mentor to graduate teachers gives her a deep understanding of the Australian Professional Standards for Teachers. She has taught English and EAL both locally and internationally (Cambodia and Indonesia), working with primary students to adult employees in corporate and industrial settings.

The “Performance” Edge

While Elizabeth holds a Bachelor of Music, she applies the rigour of a professional musician to the art of language. She views high-stakes exams as “performances” that require a disciplined practice regime and the ability to execute skills under pressure. This unique perspective allows her to coach students through the mental and technical hurdles of the LANTITE window with unparalleled success.

Leading the Team

As the Director of Master Coaching and Tuition, Elizabeth:

* Authors Proprietary Materials: She has written and developed an extensive library of premium LANTITE materials such as practice exams, LANTITE Literacy Study Booklet worksheets and numerous high-impact webinars.

* Mentors a Specialist Team: Elizabeth personally trains and supervises her team of tutors, ensuring that every student receives the “Mastery” standard of feedback in reading comprehension, technical skills of writing and and exam logic.

* Directs Student Success: From initial diagnostic enquiries to VIT portfolio mentorship, Elizabeth remains personally invested in the journey of every pre-service teacher who works at her school or joins her tuition program.

Elizabeth adores the English language and the art of teaching it. Whether she is tutoring a LANTITE Literacy candidate, refining a school student’s syntax or mentoring a pre-service teacher on their first practicum, her goal remains the same: to build confident, capable educators who are ready to lead and redefine their own classrooms.

LANTITE Numeracy Tutor: Dylan Bissell

A testimonial:

“By far the best company for LANTITE. I felt very comfortable with Dylan and in the first session he said to me, ‘There are no stupid questions.’ From then on I was able to ask questions without feeling anxious. I am a person that doesn’t enjoy Maths but I began to like the sessions because everything was simplified.” E.

Dylan (Bachelor of Education: Early Childhood and Primary) is a highly-devoted and passionate Mathematics tuition specialist that has spent years developing the method in which he teaches. Dylan can teach all age groups: primary school, high school, university and LANTITE Numeracy and has helped many students (children and adults) reach their mathematical goals. Dylan’s strong point and passion has always been Mathematics. This has led him to pass the LANTITE Numeracy test on his first attempt.

Dylan is confident he will be able to coach anyone who needs tutoring prior to sitting their LANTITE Numeracy Test. His first-hand experience and knowledge of the LANTITE test allows him to effectively prepare his students to achieve LANTITE Numeracy Success.

Dylan has experience as an early childhood teacher. As an early childhood teacher, one of the most important responsibilities is developing and implementing a curriculum to assist in meeting learning outcomes. Dylan has been a private tutor for many years and has assisted students to successfully achieve their learning goals. Dylan has taught in primary school and secondary school settings.

“We learn more by looking for the answer to a question and not finding it than we do from learning the answer itself.” Lloyd

Dylan is a strong believer in the importance of working out problems independently rather than having the answer given to you. This is where his teaching strategy is based: ensuring students develop the ability to work autonomously and gain the skills to find solutions.

Dylan is able to meet your Mathematical learning needs and build confidence in the subject by offering a curriculum that is best suited to the way that you learn. Dylan personalises his education by using the interests of his students as the backbone of how the learning is created and delivered each session. Each session is taught to develop the student’s strengths while minimising the students’ weaknesses.

Dylan displays great interpersonal skills and will ensure that the student/family is kept up-to-date with everything that occurs, including feedback from each session.

The curriculum that is delivered by Dylan is delivered with a combination of gathering knowledge from a variety of different, reliable sources, collaborating while going through examples relating to the chosen topic, working through a variety of different learning opportunities to create further understanding, completing homework in order to develop further and asking open-ended questions throughout, to gather an understanding of how conclusions are met.

Dylan has written a LANTITE Numeracy Practice Test for Master Coaching and Tuition and has written various other LANTITE Numeracy resources that he utilises in lessons with students, to help his students succeed in the Numeracy LANTITE.
