S. K Computer's Institute

We set up S. K Computer's Institute on the first floor of Gurukrupa Apartment. It’s right there at Ashok Chowk. It’s a busy intersection, so there is always something happening outside the windows. We converted a regular apartment into a space for computers and desks. It still feels a bit like a home, which we think makes people feel more relaxed. We have rows of old monitors and chairs that have seen better days, but everything works. We aren't a big fancy university. We’re just a place where you can come and learn how to use a computer properly. We spend a lot of time showing people where to click or how to type. The fans on the ceiling hum all day long to keep the rooms cool. Sometimes it gets a bit crowded when a new group comes in, and we have to shuffle the chairs around. We don't have a big marketing budget or glossy brochures. Most of our students come here because their cousins or neighbors told them it was a good place to learn. We keep the tea kettle going in the small kitchen area. It’s a very local, down-to-earth kind of place. We’ve been at Ashok Chowk for a long time now and we know the rhythms of the neighborhood. We just want to help people get a handle on technology without making it complicated.
