Caribbean AI,
built from here.
I'm Ronique Grant — founder of Likkle Coders Jamaica, a robotics-led curriculum for early childhood through primary that's rolling out in classrooms right now. Former teacher, AI coach, and author, building the next decade of Caribbean intelligence from inside the Caribbean.

About
From the classroom
to the command line.
I taught primary school children before I taught AI how to talk to people. Before that, an LPN at a private medical practice, a graphic designer, a salesperson. None of it was the plan — all of it was the training. The work, always, is translation: meeting someone in the moment they're trying to understand something hard, and finding the words that make it click.
I came to AI from inside the Caribbean, not the Bay Area — and that shapes what I build. The conversation here often centres on what AI might do to us. I'm building toward the version where it does something for us — tutoring children in the English they actually speak, giving small business owners the leverage of a research team, putting a thoughtful coach in the pocket of every Jamaican woman who's ever felt alone in a decision. Different audiences, one mission — make sure the next decade of Caribbean intelligence is built by people who actually live here.

Likkle Coders
in Jamaican classrooms.
Likkle Coders Jamaica is rolling out in Jamaican primary schools — a robotics-led EdTech curriculum built from the ground up for ECI through primary students, aligned with the Jamaican NSC, NCE and PEP. Coding, AI, robotics, and a kid-friendly chess academy in one platform.
The curriculum lives where most EdTech doesn't reach — at the youngest end of the room. ECI through primary means students from age three are getting their hands on robotics, age-appropriate, in classrooms across Jamaica.
Every module is curriculum-aligned and sharpened against what Jamaican teachers and parents actually need. Lessons run on mobile, tablet, and desktop — built for the realities of the classrooms they're going into, not the classrooms a slide deck imagines.
Robotics sits alongside coding, AI, and a kid-friendly chess academy under one roof. Likkle Brain AI backs the tutoring side; PEP Daily backs exam prep. One platform, multiple on-ramps for the same child.
"Built from inside the classroom — not the deck about it."
