These roles deepened his understanding of the challenges faced by underprivileged students and the potential of technology-driven solutions.

Inspired by his journey, from his initial steps as an intern teacher to his significant role as an Inclusive Education Facilitator, Tanzim recognized the urgent need for innovative solutions to address the educational disparities faced by marginalized children.
