We’ve seen huge progress in our daughter (8th grade, PPS) since joining up with Drew! We transitioned from another tutor and noticed an immediate difference in her attitude and confidence.

The online tutoring setup has been a great fit, even after returning to in-person classes. It’s also been super convenient for our busy schedule, even taking tutoring sessions while traveling.

Drew follows the same methods as the classroom to keep things consistent… takes a holistic approach to best support her learning style/needs… identifies learning gaps and goes back to (re)build that foundation… strikes the right balance of kindness, patience, fun, and accountability… and has been extremely flexible and reliable with us as parents.

We would 1000% recommend Drew!

Drew was an awesome summer math tutor for my Entering-2nd grade daughter who needed some additional help reviewing 1st grade number line and addition work!

After calling around a few places for a math tutor, Drew at Portland Math Tutoring was quick to respond with availability, prices & a thorough explanation as to what math tutoring will accomplish . With online schooling due to the pandemic, math started to be a struggle for our new middle-schooler. As parents, we had tried teaching to him ourselves, but essentially could not explain or even begin to understand the new Common Core math to help our son understand. After the first online session with Drew, our son felt very comfortable, because Drew was able to explain and connect with him about math. It's been a few months & our son is feeling confident in math & looks forward to his online sessions. Drew is a professional with clear communication & I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a math tutor.

Mr. Laiche tutored our 8th grade daughter along with two friends for about 6 months to give her and them better support than they were able to get through their own math class. These comments also reflect her input. Mr. Laiche was responsive, kind, and able to zero in immediately on their needs. He was good at delivering feedback in a constructive way and allowed room for questions. He provided a good balance of promoting the kids to figure things out independently but with good instruction. He engaged the kids personably but with the right mix that focused mostly on math. We highly recommend him! They are definitely ready for high school math because of him!!

I had Drew as a tutor for about 8 months and he helped me so much at understanding my math better. He really helped me break down each question and help me better understand it. Would definitely recommend!

My son was falling behind in math in this year’s CDL format. He was frustrated and embarrassed. He wasn’t too happy getting math tutoring from mom. Drew stepped in once a week for the past 3 months and my son is enjoying math again! He’s doing well and feeling confident. Keeping Drew on board as a math tutor is a no brainer.

My daughter has been receiving math tutoring from Mr. Laiche for three years. She started with compact math in middle school, moved on to geometry in high school, and now takes Algebra 3/4. She enjoys her time with Mr. Laiche, feels comfortable with him, and is able to keep up with her classes. Mr. Laiche explains math problems clearly during their sessions and is available outside of tutoring for any additional questions. He also uses online whiteboard notes, which are available after the tutoring session. Recently, a classmate has started joining the tutoring sessions and has found them to be successful. I highly recommend Mr. Laiche as a math tutor!

My child’s math confidence has improved beyond my expectations this school year working with Mr. Laiche. He’s helped undo years of frustrations and now we see smiles when it comes to math. Mr. Laiche has done a great job of assessing where there were gaps to fill in as well as reinforcing new concepts this school year.

Mr. Laiche (Drew) has been a great addition to my daughter's (5th grade) learning. Seeing her confidence in math grow has been wonderful to watch.
