Drew is fantastic! We worked with him for the first time thru all of distance learning and will continue with him once the girls are back in school as well. He’s very patient and communicative. Our oldest daughter chose to switch to compact math because she “felt more confident” since starting math tutoring with Drew, and our youngest “doesn’t hate math anymore” :) We highly recommend Drew - in fact our 2 closest family friends use him too.

Drew was great. Very communicative and clear in scheduling and rates. His approach during sessions was wonderful, leading the student to find solutions to understanding issues with sn encouraging outlook.

I came to Drew at the end of my term and he really helped me prepare for my final. We went over review and practice problems and he helped me through them. I felt super confident after all my sessions that I understood the material and felt confident going into the exam. I definitely will be working with him again.

Mr Laiche is a skilled educator, very professional, caring, and communicative. Our son feels less intimidated by math :)

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!!

One of the greatest math tutors in Portland and very flexible with scheduling and times! He is a very good one on one tutor and really prepares students for success in whatever math their in. He was able to help me develop math skills such as basic algebra, problem skill techniques, writing each step and problem so I could follow along with my own work, and he helped build confidence in knowing how to do different variations of problems. Overall I think he can help your son/daughter in a way to develop good habits for the future! I worked with Drew from middle school and now I'm going into AP calculus next year. Great tutor!

Amazing math tutor. He helped me with IB Calc SL and was really helpful in supplementing my teacher.

We really appreciated Drew’s support through precalc. My son found him to be very supportive. I think he was able to expand my son's thinking around math. He is a professional math tutor and the online tutoring was very convenient. We will definitely work with him again in the future as needed.
