Teacher expertise and credentials
Hi There! My name is Preeti Hargunani. I have a Master's degree in Computer Engineering and have experience teaching Computer Science at a renowned Engineering school and working as a Software Professional at top multi-national companies.
Teaching has always been my passion!
I started my career as a Professor for Computer Engineering at Mumbai University in India and taught various Computer courses during my tenure there from 2008-2014.
In addition to teaching, I also served as the Head of Department for Information Technology during my last year at the college.
I came to the US in summer of 2014 and decided to gain some industry experience.
I worked as a Software Engineer at Bank of America and most recently worked as a Program Manager at Microsoft.
Volunteering:
Even though, I decided to gain industry experience, my passion for teaching has always been strong. To pursue my passion, I joined Microsoft-TEALS in 2016 as a volunteer Teacher and TA for teaching Computer Science to school students. I have been an active volunteer with TEALS since then. I teach subjects like SNAP, Java and Python. All my classes for TEALS are virtual as my students are at a school that is located in a different town than mine.
In my free time I enjoy Painting and playing a musical instrument called Harmonium!
