I am currently pursuing my undergraduate degree in Psychology at the University of Kansas. I am also a member of the University Honors Program, and I will be attending Notre Dame Law School in the fall. I am currently tutoring all sections of the ACT. These are my favorite subjects to tutor, as I am not very far removed from high school, but I have much experience helping clients reach their goals over the past three years. I understand the incredible impact a solid ACT score can have on the college process.

I am entirely committed to ensuring every one of my students break through the barriers preventing them from reaching their full potential. My process involves an individual, connected explanation of the content, discussing problem-solving strategies to make testing much easier than it seems, encouraging practice and the growth of individual learning, and making sure my style of teaching is right for my student's style of learning. Most importantly, I seek to make my students love learning as much as I do.

I am a student at the University of Kansas majoring in Political Science and minoring in French. I am qualified to tutor for many AP Courses (U.S. Government, U.S. History, and French Language) in addition to ACT and further language and English tutoring. I am not far removed from these courses and tests and am therefore able to help students uniquely as I remember being in there situations.

I am a sophomore math major at the University of Kansas. People think I'm crazy to major in math, but I just tell them how much I have always loved the subject. I enjoy spending time with the girls in my sorority, scoping out new coffee shops around town, and volunteering around my community.

I am not a student anymore, however, does not mean I can't still dedicate myself to learning. There is no better way to do that than to help others learn too, and that is, most of all, what I want to do.

Thomas
PhD University of Edinburgh

I'm Dr. Thomas Torma, a writing and history tutor with university teaching experience in both the U.S. and the U.K. I specialize in helping students turn unclear ideas into clear, confident writing. I work especially well with students who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to begin. Together, we break assignments into manageable steps, clarify expectations, and build skills you can use long after a single paper is finished. I approach every student as an individual. There's no one-size-fits-all method. My goal is to understand how you think and help you develop a process that works for you. If you're looking for clear guidance, practical strategies, and a supportive environment to improve your writing, I'd be glad to work with you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students from across Lawrence's 27 schools with personalized tutoring support. Whether your student attends a school in the Lawrence USD 497 district or is homeschooled, we match them with tutors who understand Kansas academic standards and can support their specific learning needs.

Your first session is a chance for the tutor to understand your student's current level, learning style, and specific goals—whether that's catching up in math, preparing for Kansas state assessments, or getting ahead in a challenging subject. The tutor will ask questions, identify strengths and gaps, and create a personalized plan moving forward. Most students and tutors use this time to build rapport and establish a productive working relationship.

Lawrence has an average student-teacher ratio of 15.6:1, which means classroom instruction is often divided among many students with different needs. Personalized 1-on-1 tutoring gives your student undivided attention, allowing tutors to adjust pacing, explain concepts multiple ways, and focus on exactly what your student needs to master. Research consistently shows that individualized instruction significantly accelerates learning compared to group settings.

Lawrence students frequently seek help with math (especially algebra and geometry), reading comprehension, writing, and science. We also support students preparing for Kansas state assessments, ACT prep, and AP courses. Whether your student needs foundational skill-building or advanced academic support, Varsity Tutors can connect you with a tutor experienced in that subject area.

Tutors working with Lawrence students are familiar with Kansas Content Standards and state assessment expectations. They can target specific skills your student needs to demonstrate proficiency in reading, math, science, and other subjects tested at the state level. This targeted approach helps students build confidence and competency in areas where they're struggling.

Pricing varies based on the subject, tutor expertise, and frequency of sessions. We work with Lawrence families to find a tutoring plan that fits their budget and schedule—whether that's weekly sessions, intensive support before a major test, or ongoing academic help. Contact us to discuss your student's needs and get personalized pricing information.

Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors who have strong subject expertise and experience teaching or tutoring. Many hold degrees in their subject area, have classroom teaching experience, or bring specialized expertise (like ACT prep or AP subject mastery). Each tutor is carefully matched to your student's needs to ensure a productive learning partnership.

You'll see progress through improved grades, stronger performance on quizzes and tests, and increased confidence in the subject. Most tutors provide regular feedback and can share specific examples of skills your student has mastered. If you're not seeing the progress you hoped for, we can adjust the tutoring approach or connect you with a different tutor who might be a better fit.
