BS, Bachelor of Interdisciplinary Studies (Education)
Hello, I am Taylor Balusek. I have been working with kids since 2013 as a nanny, caretaker, assistant teacher, and teacher! I graduated from The University of Texas at El Paso in December 2019 and started teaching in January of 2020. I was teaching 3rd grade and when the school year ended, I went overseas to Taiwan and taught English. When my contract was finished in 2021, I came back to El Paso and started teaching 1st grade but was called to move to San Marcos in 2022 and began teaching PreK in an inclusion class where I taught both general education students and special education students. I loved it! My husband and I recently moved back to El Paso, Texas to be closer to my family. I love to hike, shoot film photography, read, and hang out with my cats.
