Learning computers is a great idea.
You can start by learning the Microsoft Office suite (Excel, Word, PowerPoint). You'll need these programs for any office work.

Starting with basic computer skills like typing, using email, organizing files, and working with Word or Google Docs is a fantastic first step. These skills open doors to jobs in data entry, online assistance, office work, and computer support. These roles involve typing, managing emails, organizing information, and solving simple tech issues, which can also help with tasks like paperwork and budgeting at home. You can also explore roles in graphic design, video editing, online content creation, online tutoring, and customer service. These jobs combine computer know-how with communication and creativity, offering exciting opportunities.

Hello, Bao !
You will be happy to know that almost every job/career position a person could have has some use of computers involved.
It will help you to start exploring basic computer skills and you could most likely do that at your school. Ask staff at your school if there is a computer class and a computer lab. I'm under the impression that most schools do have computers for the students.
I would advise that you visit the San Francisco Public Library because they provide free computer classes at the Main Library and various branch locations, covering topics such as computer basics, email, iPad use, and Spanish-language instruction. These classes are open to all and include drop in sessions. Mission Economic Development Agency Offers free digital literacy training and computer classes in both English and Spanish at its Digital Opportunity Center in the Mission District. Classes include basic computer skills, Microsoft Office, and Intuit QuickBooks, with open lab hours following sessions. SF Computer & Tech Training: Offers free computer training in Excel, Office, Adobe, and other software at its location on 2011 Sacramento Street in San Francisco. The center is open from 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM Monday through Friday. These are just some options in case your school does not offer computer classes or a computer lab.
Much later on, if you're thinking about college, you can go to college for a degree in Computer Science. There are many positions/jobs that you can go for that will have you working with computers all the time. It's good to explore what what is done for which job, so you can explore this online. You can do a search for "what does a help desk technician do ?" or "what does a technical support specialist do?" It will help greatly to explore the various computer types of work so that you can choose which area you'd like to work in and train for that particular job.
For this summer, consider applying to the Mayor’s Youth Employment and Education Program which operates during the summer and provides paid internships for youth aged 14–17. This program includes job readiness training in areas such as communication, time management, public speaking, and financial literacy, preparing participants for internships at certified worksites. Find out how to apply and when to apply at their website which I've left a link to below. This is an excellent opportunity to obtain a first job.
I hope this helps and I wish you all the best !
