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 (Drew) has been a great addition to my daughter's (5th grade) learning. Seeing her confidence in math grow has been wonderful to watch.

My son started his private lessons with Drew in August 2020 with a low B bordering on C at the end of his 7th grade. Within 5 months, he has made significant improvement in his math with a solid B+/A. He has gained more confidence and interest in math. We are all very pleased with his progress and appreciative of Drew’s expertise, patience and effective teaching.

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!

Mr Laiche has been tutoring our daughter started in mid of her 8th grade and now she is a Freshman in High School. Her grade had improved significantly when she finished the 8th grade year. Mr Drew's kindness, patient and tutoring style have help our daughter gain more confidence in herself, she is at ease with her current Geometry. Thank you Mr Laiche

Drew is an amazing tutor, our son Ali has been struggling with Math ever since elementary school, we had worked with another tutor but not much changed with his challenges. I found Drew online, he sounded very professional and that was already confirmed when he showed up for the first session. We started seeing improvement in Ali after a month already, he started building confidence in math and was able to make connections which he was unable before. We are so thankful for the support that we are getting from Drew, he is an amazing tutor with positive & constructive approach.

Mr. Laiche is nice and easy to work with. He taught me a lot during my pre-calculus semester. His online whiteboards are useful because you can reference past work and he is always available for questions, even during non-tutoring hours. I highly recommend!
Drew worked with my daughter entering 5th grade over the summer. She enjoyed her meetings with him and is headed off to school confident and excited for math which is a first. Thanks 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.

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 an incredible math tutor. He's not only helped our son with pre-calculus, but now our daughter with geometry. He's patient, approachable and takes the time to explain concepts in a way that is easier to absorb than in the classroom with multiple students and limited time. We highly recommend.

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 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!

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!
