"I was struggling with confidence, self esteem, self acceptance until i joined TMA. TMA helped with my growth, finding my self confidence and I learned to express my through modelling, which is why I decided to be both a pageant model and a runway model. Out Of 4 pageants I’ve participated in, I won 2 of them and the other 2 I was in top 10. I participated in all the TMA fashion shows, and few other external shows. Through TMA I learned fairness, teamwork/ team building and accepting that we are not the same and that’s what makes us unique. In my 3/4 years with TMA it has been a journey of learning and discovering new things about myself, yes there has been challenges and misunderstandings but we got through them and that’s why I am who I am today. With that being said TMA IS THE BEST!!"

"My experience at the Taahirah Modelling Academy was truly life changing. I gained confidence, learned how to present myself professionally, and improved my runway skills. My coach, Mrs. Taahirah Tshose, was very patient, and pushed me to become the best version of myself. Even though I started shy and unsure, I’m growing every day, building new skills, and becoming more confident. I’m grateful for everything the academy continues to teach me, it’s helping me grow not only as a model, but as a person. Being a model at the Taahirah Modelling Academy means so much to me. It’s more than just learning poses and runway techniques it’s about discovering who I am, building confidence, and trusting my own potential."

"TMA has been a fantastic experience. The academy provides great guidance, amazing opportunities, and a very supportive community. I'm grateful to be part of the TMA family"

"Miss TMA was my first pageant and an incredibly transformative experience for me. Before entering, I had no idea how much personal growth, mentorship, and skills development the world of pageantry offered. Through Taahirah’s guidance, I emerged from my reign more confident, poised, and bold, discovering my ability to inspire others and achieve goals that impacted my community. Beyond personal growth, this pageant helped me curate a strong personal brand as a public speaker and advocate for globally conscious activism, leadership, and volunteerism. Alongside my legal background, this experience set me apart in a competitive field by sharpening my communication and social skills. Overall, Miss TMA was a journey of empowerment and divine purpose, one I’d recommend to any young woman who is eager to grow, lead, and make an impact in her community."

"My journey as the Face of TMA Ambassador has been an incredible season of growth, faith, and self-discovery. It wasn’t always easy, but every challenge taught me to trust God’s timing and believe in my purpose. Through this platform, I was able to inspire others, build confidence, and use my voice to make a difference. I’m deeply grateful to my mentor, TMA family, my family, my friends and supporters for walking this path with me. This experience reminded me that true beauty is found in humility, perseverance, and faith and that when you walk with God, every step becomes a lesson worth cherishing. "

"Being a Miss Teen TMA Ambassador has been life-changing! I've developed leadership skills, showcased my talents, and connected with incredible young women who've become my sistahood. This role has taught me confidence, poise, and the importance of community service. I'm grateful for the platform to inspire and empower others. The experience has been unforgettable, and I've grown into a more compassionate, driven, and resilient individual. I highly recommend this opportunity to any young woman looking to grow, learn, and make a difference. Thank you, Lord, for this incredible journey, and thank you, Taahirah Modeling Academy, for helping me discover my potential! "
