Drew has been fantastic. He is patient and engaging. Our son is starting high school next year, and thanks to Drew, he feels more confident about skipping algebra and taking an advanced math class. His understanding and skills have noticeably improved in a short time. Definitely recommend!

My daughter had been doing Kumon for a few years and was finding it hard to stay motivated. We decided to try a tutor and found Mr. Drew Laiche, of Portland Math Tutor. Wow! What a great change in her attitude and interest in math. I'm 100% confident she will be set for the challenges of high school math and physics. Great teacher and great business. I recommend Mr. Laiche exponentially!

Drew is very patient and communicates very well with my son. He is currently tutoring him in compacted 7th grade math. My son was having a hard time learning from his teacher and was worried he should be in a different class, but within a few lessons with Drew he was up to speed and maintaining a minimum of a B grade.

Thank you Drew! We have had a wonderful experience with Drew as two of my daughters' (7th and 12th grade) math tutor for a year now. He is always professional, on time, provides content and knows how to motivate my girls to do better.
He was able to pivot to an online platform almost instantly when the pandemic stopped our ability to meet in person and we appreciate his efforts and success with that change.
My girls have seen amazing results from their weekly meetings with Drew and they have continued to increase their individual abilities in math and in the language of math. I have full faith in Drew's ability to aid my children in becoming more confident and successful in the subject of math at any level while learning to enjoy the subject as well.

Drew is an amazing tutor, our son Ali has been struggling with Math ever since elementary school, we had worked with another tutor but not much changed with his challenges. I found Drew online, he sounded very professional and that was already confirmed when he showed up for the first session. We started seeing improvement in Ali after a month already, he started building confidence in math and was able to make connections which he was unable before. We are so thankful for the support that we are getting from Drew, he is an amazing tutor with positive & constructive approach.
