Belizean Educator Launches AI-Toolkit for Teachers
Artificial intelligence is quickly changing the classroom, and one Belizean educator is using it to lighten the load for teachers. Dr. Adriani Coleman, founder of Digital Learning and Pedagogical Solutions Belize, launched AidenTeach in 2023. The AI-powered platform helps teachers with lesson planning, classroom management, project-based learning, and student assessments. Coleman says the goal is to cut down on paperwork and routine tasks so teachers can spend more time where it matters most, engaging students and delivering stronger lessons.

“AidenTeach is a subscription service. Teachers sign up, they pay a small monthly fee, and then they have access to fourteen bots that have been curated and specially designed for teachers in four main areas.”

“What are those areas?”
Dr. Adriani Coleman
“The areas are lesson planning, discipline, project-based learning, and formative and summative assessments.”

“And so how interactive is it? How will this assist them essentially?”
Dr. Adriani Coleman
“Teachers have a lot of work. Teaching is not just lesson planning. We have to think of many things. Teachers have to juggle a lot in the classroom, a lot of administrative load. And so sometimes when you’re in the classroom, your mind is somewhere else because you have to meet certain deadlines. So AidenTeach was born out of the idea that I wanted to give teachers back the time so that they can connect with their students, so they have less things to think about other than the execution of what they have planned.”

“So if anyone wants to sign up for AidenTeach, how do they go about doing that?”
Dr. Adriani Coleman
“So they go to aidenteach.com, and we have the, the pricing right there. They click on the one that they desire, and they input their credit card information, and they become a subscriber.”
Dr. Coleman plans to expand the program across he Caribbean and will soon be launching the service in Jamaica.
