    The kind of math tutor I wish I had when I was in school. Drew is excellent in every way. Deliberate, clear, and calming. He provides a wealth of supplemental material and teaches in a refreshingly clear and concise way.

    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!

    Mr. Laiche is patient and clear in his explanations of math with our middle school child who will not take math help from parents. We appreciate his familiarity with the PPS math curriculum. He is able to answer questions from during the week when topics are not covered clearly in our child's classroom instruction and helps to work ahead when possible.

    Drew is a very talented tutor for math. He worked with my daughter over the past two years and she really appreciated his support. He allowed my daughter to decide where to spend their time during each session and had her solve problems in front of him to confirm her understanding of key concepts. He is very good at providing a visual representation of the concept he is teaching. I highly recommend Drew to any family looking for a math tutor for their child.

    Drew has a great rapport with our 13-year old son who is geeking out on math. He looks forward to his tutor sessions with Drew and seems to absorb everything he is learning. We have even recommended Drew to a couple other families who are equally pleased with their kidsโ€™ improvement in math.

    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.

    Drew has patiently worked with my child almost weekly since 2019 going into 8th grade and when she was in online school during the pandemic. He has provided consistent support for high school math, helping with review of material as well as preparation for tests and exams. I highly recommend the Portland Math Tutor.

    Drew has been a great tutor for our high school sophomore. He explains concepts and provides feedback. Our son has a better understanding of concepts and his homework. Drew has been great about scheduling and he is very organized. We are very happy with Drew!
