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!

I came to Drew at the end of my term and he really helped me prepare for my final. We went over review and practice problems and he helped me through them. I felt super confident after all my sessions that I understood the material and felt confident going into the exam. I definitely will be working with him again.

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.

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.

Drew is very patient, provides clear explanations of concepts and always made sure my 8th grader understood before moving on to the next topic. Sessions were flexible based on current needs and were always engaging.

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. Its 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 have worked with Drew with our 12 year old son weekly for the last 4 months and have been so impressed and fortunate to have had him as part of our sons education. He has a great rapport with our child and we have seen positive results. He came highly recommended and we would without hesitancy pass on the recommendation.

Drew is a great instructor! He communicates difficult concepts in a clear and understandable manner. During a time when schools are struggling to properly teach students Drew is able to connect and educate his students. My child has seen remarkable improvement and new found confidence since starting with Drew.

Review №11

Thank you Drew! We have had a wonderful experience with Drew as two of my daughters (7th and 12th grade) math tutor for a year now. He is always professional, on time, provides content and knows how to motivate my girls to do better.He was able to pivot to an online platform almost instantly when the pandemic stopped our ability to meet in person and we appreciate his efforts and success with that change.My girls have seen amazing results from their weekly meetings with Drew and they have continued to increase their individual abilities in math and in the language of math. I have full faith in Drews ability to aid my children in becoming more confident and successful in the subject of math at any level while learning to enjoy the subject as well.

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.

My daughter had been doing Kumon for a few years and was finding it hard to stay motivated. We decided to try a tutor and found Mr. Drew Laiche, of Portland Math Tutor. Wow! What a great change in her attitude and interest in math. Im 100% confident she will be set for the challenges of high school math and physics. Great teacher and great business. I recommend Mr. Laiche exponentially!

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!

Review №16

My child’s math confidence has improved beyond my expectations this school year working with Mr. Laiche. He’s helped undo years of frustrations and now we see smiles when it comes to math. Mr. Laiche has done a great job of assessing where there were gaps to fill in as well as reinforcing new concepts this school year.

Review №17

Our daughter is in 7th grade and taking Compacted Math via distance learning within PPS. Having Mr. Laiche as a tutor has helped tremendously and her confidence in math has increased as a direct result of Mr. Laiche’s guidance and explanations during the tutoring sessions. Excellent value for your time and money. We plan to continue her tutoring once in-person school resumes. Highly recommend!

Review №18

Highly recommend Mr. Laiche! He has been so great to work with remotely during the pandemic, and has really helped my middle schooler feel more confident about math. Mr. Laiche adjusts his lessons to accommodate what my child is working on at school, which has been incredibly helpful during this year of distance learning.

Review №19

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.

Review №20

One of the greatest math tutors in Portland and very flexible with scheduling and times! He is a very good one on one tutor and really prepares students for success in whatever math their in. He was able to help me develop math skills such as basic algebra, problem skill techniques, writing each step and problem so I could follow along with my own work, and he helped build confidence in knowing how to do different variations of problems. Overall I think he can help your son/daughter in a way to develop good habits for the future! I worked with Drew from middle school and now Im going into AP calculus next year. Great tutor!

Review №21

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 a great tutor and has done such an excellent job helping our daughter through her Geometry class. With his help, she has received an A grade for the semester. She truly appreciates the thorough way in which he explains new concepts and how he breaks them down to simplify them. In addition to that, he is very responsive, punctual, and makes online learning easy. If you’re in need of a tutor, Mr. Laiche is a fantastic choice!

Review №24

Drew Laiche is an amazing teacher! He worked with my 14 year old son this summer to prep for high school math -- algebra and geometry.Drews style is easy going and he makes the lessons interesting so the concepts stick. He is patient and works with the student to make sure everything is clear before moving on to the next subject. Its the perfect amount of instruction for the child and I wish that we had found him sooner! I wholeheartedly recommend his services.

Review №25

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 childs classroom instruction and helps to work ahead when possible.

Review №26

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.

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.

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 cant recommend Mr. Laiche enough!

Review №33

Mr. Laiche is an incredible math tutor. Hes not only helped our son with pre-calculus, but now our daughter with geometry. Hes 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.

Review №34

Mr. Laiche is one of the best math teachers of all of my four boys collective school years. We had the privilege of having him work with my two youngest sons when they were struggling quite a bit, and in short order he had them not only grasping previously impossible math concepts, but working steadily and engaged throughout the sessions, and then exclaiming how much it helped after they were over! (What kid says that?!) We will return to him for regularly scheduled tutoring at the end of summer and look forward to a math-angst-free next school year.

Fun and engaging tutor. Perfect for my high school student who was much more receptive to Drews input than my own! He knows his stuff and he knows how to relate to teenagers.

Review №36

My daughter is taking Advanced Algebra 3-4 Honors. She was struggling and her grade dropped to a D. Mr. Laiche provided her exceptional guidance and just had her final and received a final grade of B. We believe continued Tutoring should elevate her grade further. We highly recommend Mr. Laiche for math tutoring.

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.

Mr. Laiche was instrumental in catching our daughter up in Algebra after an extended illness that caused her to miss over a month of classes. He is well worth the investment!

Drew tutors both of my daughters who are at different math levels (Junior, Pre-Calc and 8th grade, Compacted math). He flawlessly transitions from one to the other. Both of my daughters have said he has been a huge help and they really enjoy working with him. We appreciate that he can come to the house and scheduling has been easy. My girls would highly recommend him!
