About Digital School Nepal

Computer education for everyone in Nepal.

Digital School Nepal exists because most computer training in Nepal is built for one audience — young men who already know they want IT careers — and ignores everyone else. We're built for everyone else.

Our Story

Built for the people other institutes overlook.

Digital School Nepal was founded in 2024 by a small team of educators who had spent years watching the same problem repeat: in every Kathmandu classroom, behind every shop counter, in every government office and NGO, there were people who needed basic-to-intermediate computer skills urgently — and almost nobody was teaching them.

The existing IT institutes in Nepal are excellent at what they do, but what they do is train future programmers, network engineers, and IT support staff. Their curricula assume their students already understand computers. Their pricing assumes their students will earn IT salaries. Their schedules assume their students aren't also balancing school, college, or a part-time job.

Meanwhile, the actual demand we kept seeing was different. A 16-year-old +2 student who needed MS Office to write her college applications. A grandmother in Lalitpur who wanted to video-call her son in Australia without help. A graphic designer freelancing on Facebook who had never learned Photoshop properly. A wedding videographer making good money but stuck because she'd only ever used CapCut. A grade-7 boy whose parents had read about coding and didn't know where to start.

Digital School Nepal is built for them. Our courses are shorter (4-8 weeks instead of 6 months), more practical (real projects, not theory), more flexible (weekday, evening, weekend, and online options), more affordable, and taught in both Nepali and English. We don't pretend everyone wants to become a software engineer. We just want everyone — at any age, from any background — to be confident enough with computers to do whatever they actually want to do.

A short timeline

How we got here.

2024 — Q1
Founded in Kathmandu.
Started with three instructors and one classroom. The first batch was 12 students, mostly +2 college students preparing for the digital portion of college entrance exams.
2024 — Q3
Added creative courses.
Launched Graphic Design and Video Editing in response to overwhelming requests from existing students who wanted creative skills, not just productivity software.
2025 — Q1
Coding for Kids launched.
After repeated parent requests, we built an age-appropriate coding curriculum for 10–17 year olds. It became our most fully-subscribed course within two batches.
2025 — Q3
Online format added.
In response to demand from students outside Kathmandu Valley, we built an online delivery model for most of our courses — same instructors, same hands-on approach, delivered live over Zoom.
2026
Eight courses. Hundreds of students.
Today we run eight courses across foundation, creative, and specialised streams. We're still small, still careful about who we hire as instructors, and still focused on the audiences other institutes overlook.
Our teaching approach

Four principles we don't compromise on.

Every institute claims to have a teaching philosophy. Most of those philosophies sound the same and mean nothing in practice. Here is what ours actually means, with examples of how it shows up in every class.

01

Project-first, theory-last.

Every course is structured around projects you build, not chapters you study. In MS Office Week 4, you're not learning VLOOKUP for an exam — you're using it to track a small business's actual sales. The theory comes after you've felt why the tool matters.

02

Small classes — instructor knows your name.

We cap classes at 12 students. Not a marketing claim — a logistical constraint we won't break. If your instructor doesn't know your name and roughly where you're stuck by week two, the class is too big to teach properly.

03

Bilingual, by default.

Most of Nepal is more comfortable thinking in Nepali than in English. So we teach concepts in Nepali, keep technical vocabulary in English (because that's what the software shows), and let students ask questions in whichever language is faster for them. No shame about either.

04

One-on-one when you're stuck.

If a student isn't getting something in class, we don't move on. We pause, we sit with them, we explain it again differently. If that takes 20 minutes while the rest of the class works on practice exercises, that's the cost. Better than 12 students leaving the course half-understanding the material.

Why we're different

What we are. What we aren't.

What we are

  • A practical computer school for students aged 10 to 70
  • Built for school students, college students, freelancers, business owners, and adults entering the digital workplace
  • Bilingual instruction in Nepali and English
  • Project-based, hands-on, and small-batch
  • Modern and affordable, with transparent pricing
  • Available in-person and online

What we aren't

  • Not a software engineering academy (no CCNA, MERN, DevOps)
  • Not the cheapest option in Kathmandu — we charge mid-market and explain why
  • Not a degree-granting institution — we offer completion certificates, not diplomas
  • Not a placement consultancy — we'll teach you, not place you
  • Not a self-paced online course — every class is live and taught by a real instructor
  • Not pretending to be the biggest. We're focused on being the most useful
Meet the team

The people who'll actually teach you.

Each instructor is a working professional in the field they teach — not a generalist who teaches whatever we ask them to. The course you sign up for is taught by someone who does that work for money outside of teaching.
