Absolute Value – Portland Math Tutor, LLC

Drew has been great working with both of our sons for the last year & has been wonderful, patient & creative, especially with navigating distance tutoring. He is adaptable to school curriculum as well as other learning platforms. He understands the social-emotional aspects of math anxiety, and has been enormously helpful to us parents with adjusting to online learning. Very grateful to be working with Drew!

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!

Mr. Laiche has been tutoring my two daughters (9 and 10) since school started this year. He is patient, friendly and unflappable! Both girls have been learning a lot, and the best part about it is that they seem to enjoy their math lessons. I can't recommend Mr. Laiche enough!

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.

Drew was really able to connect with daughter and explain things in a way that made sense to her. He also had a wealth of practice materials for her use on any topic that came up. Definitely recommend him.

Drew has worked with our sixth grade son over the past year and has been wonderful--patient and warm and funny. My son is a bit slow to warm up and shy but after each session wraps up, he seems excited about what they covered and where he's at. Their working together has no doubt made a significant difference in terms of where my son's mathematical understanding is at now--we're grateful we found Drew!

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.

Mr. Laiche helped my son tremendously in high school pre-calculus. He was patient, knew his material and was easy to work with. We are very thankful for his assistance. We highly recommend him.
