Why Coding

Why Coding Is the Best Investment for Your Child's Future

In 2035, almost every career your child might choose will require some level of digital fluency. Coding is no longer a niche skill, it is a new kind of literacy.

Stronger Academics

Coding reinforces maths, logic and sequencing: skills that show up across the school curriculum.

Creativity with Purpose

Children move from consuming videos and games to creating their own stories, animations and apps.

Future-Ready

Digital fluency is becoming as fundamental as reading, writing and arithmetic for the careers of 2035.

Confidence That Transfers

Debugging and problem-solving build resilience that helps in every subject and everyday life.

Mindful Learning

Screen Time to Skill Time

Not all screen time is equal. At YCA, children are building, problem-solving and creating not passively scrolling. Every session is structured around a project, with clear goals, instructor check-ins and built-in breaks.

We also teach offline computational thinking, so your child carries the mindset beyond the laptop. The result is screen time that becomes skill time.

โ€œMy daughter used to just watch YouTube. Now she builds her own games. The weekly reports tell me exactly what she learned.โ€

- Anjali Sharma, parent of a Grade 4 student

FAQ

Questions Parents Ask

Young Crafts Academy (YCA) is a coding school for children in Grade 1 to 10. We teach live classes online and at our centre in Sankhamul, Kathmandu, in Scratch, Python, web development, AI, robotics, Roblox game development and video editing.
YCA stands for Young Crafts Academy, a coding school for children in Grade 1 to 10 in Kathmandu, Nepal. Parents and students often call us YCA for short.
Young Crafts Academy is a joint initiative of Vrit Technologies, an IT company, and Skill Shikshya, Nepal's established IT training institution. Your child's coding education is backed by an organisation with a real track record, not a standalone tutoring startup.
YCA has been teaching children since 2019. Since then, we have taught 500+ students and partnered with 10+ schools across Nepal, with live classes online and at our Sankhamul centre in Kathmandu.
Young Crafts Academy is in Sankhamul, Kathmandu 44600, Nepal. Our centre is open Monday to Saturday, 9 AM to 6 PM, and families are welcome to visit before enrolling. You can call or WhatsApp us on +977 9709083872.
Every class is led by a trained instructor experienced in teaching children, not just coding. Instructors are matched to a student's age group and course track.
YCA combines live instructors with small class sizes (max 8 students), giving children real feedback on their own projects, something self-paced apps and pre-recorded courses can't offer.
YCA teaches coding as a foundation, then builds toward career skills like web development, AI and robotics. Nepal's Curriculum Development Centre has added AI and Python to the optional Computer Science subject for Grade 9 and 10, and YCA's advanced courses help students get ready for it.
