MY LIFE

Having been born in a family of Doctors, it was naturally expected of me to become one. Those were the days especially in a small town, when a good student was expected to become either Doctor or an Engineer! But somehow biological science never took my fancy. As a student, Mathematics had always been my strong suit. They say, it takes a great teacher to evoke a student’s interest in a subject. Isn’t it rather surprising that the first teacher to have kindled my interest in maths is my own mother, who is a Doctor by profession!!

It is a privilege to be born and brought up in a place like Ratnagiri. Ratnagiri, my home, the town of mangoes and coconuts, that of mountains and the sea. The journey began at Phatak High school, where they put in great effort into imparting a set of core values that make us not only a good professional but also a fine human being.

With an innate inclination towards mathematics, I decided to skip biology and pick a vocational subject (Computer science) during junior college. I found my interest in electronics and made up my mind to take up Electronics Engineering as a career. This brought me to Finolex College of Engineering where I spent the next four years learning electronics and much more. I thoroughly enjoyed studying and the host of extracurricular activities the college offered.

What really brought me into teaching is the teaching assistantship that was a part of the M. Tech programme at Vishwakarma Institute. As postgraduate students, we had to conduct practical classes for our juniors. I developed an interest in explaining concepts to students in a way they will understand and grasp better and found it immensely satisfying to see that happen.

My first job at teaching was at Vidyalankar School of Information Technology and it has been a considerable number of years since. This was my first job ever and VSIT molded me in such a way that I metamorphosed from a student to a teacher. During my tenure at VSIT, I have taught a variety of subjects such as Microprocessors, Embedded Systems, Operating Systems, Mathematics and Statistics etc. Other than teaching I also do a lot of interesting things such as student mentoring and project guidance, cultural and technical activities etc. In a nutshell, I think I have found my calling and I am enjoying it. I look forward to many more years of teaching and imparting the gift of knowledge to eager, young minds.

Being born in a family where both of my parents were doctors, I was expected to take up medicine as my career. So just like every middle class family my career was decided even before I could learn to speak. During my school and college days I was an above average student but when it came to giving my entrance test for medical somehow I could not manage to get admission in Mumbai and again due to family restrictions I could not go to Yavatmal where I managed secure an M.B.B.S seat. But life does not stop right? So I was expected to prepare for medical entrance one more time. I wished to go for Engineering and brought my admission form as well but was persuaded against it. So to not waste my year I was made to take admission to B.Sc. in the same college where I completed my HSc and that was a turning point for me.

During graduation I was lucky enough to be taught by teachers who inspired me not just to understand what I like but also to take a stand for what I like. So I decided to complete my education in Electronics even after getting B.D.S. seat in a college in Navi Mumbai after my second attempt of the medical entrance. This time I was persistent and confident enough to do what I like and was ready to take all the responsibility of that. So I continued my education while working part time as tutor, because if the choice is yours, so is its responsibility.

During my graduation I realized that, it is more important to know various opportunities around us than to be stuck with a single choice. Unlike our parents’ time, these days we have large number of opportunities, but we lack is proper guidance to explore them. Also one needs to make his own decisions and not just that should be able to work hard to achieve their goal. This thought inspired me to become a teacher and I did my Masters in Electronics and completed B.Ed. I wished to be the torch that today’s kids need in the world full of opportunities. I wanted to tell them that career does not end only because you missed one opportunity, but this also does not mean that we stop taking our career seriously. We can be more alert and grab the next opportunity that comes in our way and again make a comeback in the race of life. So what are we waiting for? ON YOUR MARK. GET-SET-AND GO….
