“I Can’t Believe This Is My Story”: Who Joins Tomorrow School and Why

At Tomorrow School, the first peer-to-peer AI school in Kazakhstan, students learn programming, build communities, launch study clubs, share knowledge — and transform their lives. Since its launch in October 2024, the school has held six selection pools, known as “piscines,” with nearly 1,000 participants. Currently, 216 students are enrolled in the core program.


Learning at Tomorrow School takes place offline at Astana Hub. The school operates around the clock, allowing students to study at their own pace and on their own schedule. Over 18 months, students complete more than 50 projects and can explore up to 20 programming languages — including Python, JavaScript, Golang, and Rust. At the end of the program, each student chooses a specialization: from AI engineering to game development, DevOps, cybersecurity, and more.

In just eight months, a strong community has emerged at Tomorrow School. Students are involved not only in their own learning, but in helping others — from teaching English and giving public speaking tips to demonstrating how AI tools can be used in real business cases.

Students come from different professions, age groups, and backgrounds, but all share the same drive: to start from scratch and build a new story in tech. And those stories are deeply inspiring.

Stanislav Kuleshov is one of the youngest students at the school. He’s 18 and currently studies at Seifullin Kazakh Agro Technical University. He joined Tomorrow School with no programming experience. Within his first few months, Stanislav mastered the basics, began applying his skills, and built a Telegram Mini App for a local coffee shop in Astana, enabling online orders and delivery. He also received his first freelance order from a European client. He says: “The main thing is motivation and perseverance. Looking back now, I can’t believe this is my story.”

In contrast to newcomer Stanislav, Azamat Zhenisov already had some IT experience before joining the school. Azamat, 20, is a third-year cybersecurity student at AITU. He had previously attended other IT schools, but never completed them for various reasons. At Tomorrow School, he immediately felt supported and engaged. Thanks to the community, he launched the Beginner English Club, where he helps fellow students learn English, and he also completed an internship at a major company. “I live by the principle of improving 1% every day. That’s why I’m here, at Tomorrow School,” Azamat says.

For some students, the journey didn’t start with ambitions in tech at all — but with a desire for reinvention. Amir Zhakyshev is an economist by training. For more than ten years, he ran a traditional business without any IT background. He’s 36. “I used to think programming was for geniuses. But after meeting a graduate of a peer-to-peer school from France, that stereotype broke down. I was thrilled to learn that this model exists in Kazakhstan too. Tomorrow School offers a unique opportunity for anyone wanting to grow in AI and IT. If you want to test a new career fast — this is the place,” Amir shares. He now leads the Public Speaking Club and takes part in Astana Hub’s AI’preneurs acceleration program.

For others, the school became a chance to reset not just a career — but an entire life. Thirty-year-old Mereke Kurmashev previously worked in outdoor advertising and had no technical background. In November 2024, he decided to radically shift paths and enrolled in Tomorrow School. Just a few months later, he launched his own automation business using neural networks, with one of the largest fitness companies in Kazakhstan as his first client. According to Mereke, Tomorrow School really changes lives: it’s a place where you can find your calling, your people, and a mission that inspires. He believes that this environment is what helps people quickly explore new roles and grow in the tech field. Today, he leads the AI Tools Club and helps students learn how to use neural networks for a wide range of tasks.

Each student’s journey is unique — but they all share a common thread: at Tomorrow School, talent is revealed, lives are transformed, and real change begins.

Today, the school hosts 13 student-run clubs: AI Tools Club, Kazakh Club, Freelance Club, Beginner English, Public Speaking, Startup Club, LeetCode Club, Debate Club, Soft Skills Club, Cash Skills, Board Games Club, Chess Club, Music Jam Club, and Movie Club. Each club was created by students and is led by a head and deputy. Participants lead sessions, exchange knowledge, and develop leadership skills.

“The Tomorrow School community doesn’t just live within its walls. Students organize football and chess tournaments, go on nature team-building retreats, and take part in Astana Hub programs like Startup Garage, AI’preneurs, and the Decentrathon hackathon. Top-performing students even earn access to personal lockers. Some of the most outstanding ones were invited to a private meeting with Astana Hub CEO Magzhan Madiyev to discuss IT initiatives and startup support programs in Kazakhstan,” shared Aruzhan Taubayeva, community manager at Tomorrow School.

The school continues to grow and welcomes new applicants. Applications for the 7th cohort are now open. Registration is open until July 18, 2025 at: https://tomorrow-school.ai/
