My Story

Hello and welcome to my life. I’m Lisa Anderson (the LA in LA Coach) and a life long learner. Never in my life did I think I would aspire to having anything to do with education but life has a way of turning things around. Twenty-five years ago I was a medical transcriptionist. I love language and trying figure out those big words used by doctors made me feel great! Typing up ER SOAP (Subjective, Objective, Assessment, and Plan) notes and diagnosing patients before I got through the Objective was a competition for me. I was good at it, too. So good, I decided I could do it on my own at home. All Words Matter, LLC was born and the feast/famine era began. At that time my mother encouraged me to substitute teach. The very first day I was so excited when I got home and I was smitten…smitten with teaching!
