IBA Graduate & Faculty Member

"Growing up in a slum of Karachi may not have held many promises for me if a TCF school hadn't opened up in my community. TCF's excellent education is the reason I could bag a competitive Fulbright Scholarship in the U.S."

"Women feel more comfortable opening up to a female officer. And honestly, nothing beats the feeling of solving their cases. It's where I find my peace and joy."

Muhammad Adnan

Agha khan University Hospital

"From the days when my dad struggled to afford medicine to finding my footing in the field of medicine today, it's been quite a journey. Education has truly reshaped the course of my life."
