Drew Laiche was recommended by a friend to tutor our kid in math during the pandemic. He is very personable, kind, funny, and most all, he had the ability to help our kid absorb math processes and problem solving skills during a time when absorbing any information is very difficult! We will definitely call him again in the future if needed. Highly recommend.

Our son has thrived in his advanced Algebra analysis class in high school because of Drew. He went from a C to straight A's the whole year. The online platform is fantastic and easy to navigate. Drew is easy to communicate with. We highly recommend him and are very grateful for his help!

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 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.

My son is a freshman at Lincoln high school and is taking two advanced math courses. With the current restrictions on face-to-face or online teaching time we thought we would try a tutor. Mr. Laiche and his services are a great resource. He is very easy to work with and Andrew really enjoys his teaching style. We would definitely recommend him to anyone who needs a little additional teaching for any reason.

Mr. Laiche works with both of my elementary-aged sons. They want a little more challenge in math so he prepares problem-solving work for them and ensures they're using good methods to solve those puzzles. He's patient and encouraging, supportive and positive. We really enjoy working with Drew!

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 has significantly improved my daughter's understanding of and grade in pre-calculus this year. He is highly professional, communicative and prompt, and my daughter has gained confidence in her math ability through their sessions together.

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 kids’ improvement in math.
