Drew has been an amazing support for my daughter. For the past few years he has helped her understand more of algebra and geometry with one-on-one sessions, personalized homework, access to focused online learning, and feedback. It has made such a difference. Thank you, Drew!

Drew has been fantastic. He has been working with our son since he started high school. He is patient and engaging, and with his help our son was able to progress through advanced math courses and prepare for the SAT with confidence. His understanding and skills continue to noticeably improve. Definitely recommend!

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!

Drew worked with my 13 year old daughter throughout the summer. This greatly improved her confidence and her aptitude. She had been taking algebra in 8th grade, during her sessions they dove into concepts she was struggling with working ahead to geometry. Definitely a very logical approach to tutoring, and my daughter listened to Drew, much more than me! I feel like he showed a great deal of patience, overall was a positive experience and worth the price.

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.

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.

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!
