I am Lidia Balderas, I have a Bachelor's in Business, an EC-6 Certification, Bilingual Certification, and LOTE Certification. I have been teaching Pre-kindergarten for 16 years and this will be my 7th year, here at Turlington.

A little bit about myself, I have been married for 30 years and have three children. Carlos, he graduated as an Architectural Engineer; Aaron, he graduated as a Civil Engineer and married to Marybeth Snow; and Lily, my youngest one, seeking a degree in nursing.

My pasion for teaching started with my own children, and decided to get a certification as a bilingual teacher. I enjoy every minute with my students, and I belive that "all children can learn", if you give them what they need.
