MY LIFE

I remember Teachers’ Day in 2003, to my surprise, I was selected to take a session in my school. That time I realized my interest towards teaching.

For 10 consecutive years, I was the topper of my school that gave confidence to me and motivated me to study and acquire knowledge. As step towards teaching, I started teaching school kids from my Second Year of college. One of the girls from those school kids is now pursuing medical and some of them are engineers. This made me independent and I was bestowed with a responsibility of mentoring the kids with poor economic and educational background in their career from my locality.

Vidyalankar has given me opportunities to grow not only as a teacher but also as an individual. It is a moment of pride as a project guide, when students who were not confident earlier, excelled in their project work and rewarded. The emotional part was that they credited it to their guide.

Travelling is one of my most leisure thing that I pursue whenever I get an opportunity. As far as my professional life is concerned, opportunity to work as an In-Charge for Industry Institute Interaction Committee (IIIC) opened a door for me which was full of adventures and excitement. As a convener of IIIC, I arranged and executed visits to places like Meteorological Department, BARC, Indira Dock, LnT, TATA Automobiles, Bangalore and many more. Geographic Information System(GIS) was one of those subjects that I taught the most and I got emotional when a student named Akshata Shinde contacted and informed that she is pursuing her Masters in Geoinformatics from Symbiosis institute only because of the interest she developed in GIS from my teaching.

Learning different genre of dance was always on my wish list. Hence, I learnt ballroom dancing. Friends and their friendship always remained an important part for me and I am glad I made few but real friends in every phase of my life of school, college, and work.

I want to grow more in my field of teaching, enhance my skills and work with dedication in whatever I choose in the years to come.

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….
