Experienced teacher and departmental head of History, teaching at Secondary 11-19 level

Bernard has helped my daughter tremendously with her GCSE History. She received a 3 in her mock and, despite her efforts, wasn’t improving as we approached GCSE season. Although we started with Bernard quite late, his support made an incredible difference. He literally helped turn things around, and she went on to achieve a fantastic **7 in her final GCSE**. We couldn’t recommend Bernard highly enough. His support, teaching and dedication made such a huge difference. Thank you, Bernard!

I am writing with great pleasure to recommend Mr. Bernard Peter Rawlins for an online tutorial position in World History. My name is Jiang Anni, a senior student at the International Department of Yangzhou High School, and I have had the privilege of being Mr. Rawlins’s student on two separate occasions. My first encounter with Mr. Rawlins’s teaching was even before I officially entered high school, during a summer trial course in Yangzhou High School.During that time, my English was not good enough to fully understand the knowledge of world history. Yet in my impression,Mr.Rawlins was really serious in teaching and has played a positive role in my learning of English indirectly. My second, and more profound, experience was during my second year of high school, when he taught me Pre-World History and provided invaluable guidance for my AP World History studies. Furthermore, my elder brother,Kerry, was also taught by Mr. Rawlins eight years ago, so I have been familiar with his reputat

I'm a student of Mr. Rawlins from 2016-2018 at an international high school program in China. I took the Pre-World History lessons taught by Mr. Rawlins and got a level 5 result for AP World History. The historical concepts taught by Mr. Rawlins are always clear and well-organized. My favorite aspect of Mr. Rawlins's lessons is that he always encouraged a critical thinking process to analyze historical concepts instead of directly presenting historical events. This critical thinking process that I gained from Mr. Rawlins's lessons has helped me analyze concepts beyond world history. It has helped me challenge the existing concept and develop novel systems during my PhD study. I highly recommend taking Mr. Rawlins's class.

I'm writing to highly recommend Mr. Peter Rawlins. His AP World History class was a defining experience in my high school career, profoundly impacting my academic and personal development. Mr. Rawlins is a remarkable teacher who went beyond the standard curriculum. While his mastery of world history was evident, his true gift was teaching critical thinking skills that transcended the subject. He taught us how to deconstruct historical arguments, analyze primary sources, and construct well-argued essays. He was famously meticulous about details, insisting on precise formatting and clear argumentation. Though we found his rigor demanding at the time, his lessons have proven invaluable. Beyond the classroom, Mr. Rawlins's philosophical approach to history taught us to see the past not as a list of facts but as a living narrative that continues to shape the present. He encouraged us to appreciate nuance and complexity, fostering a deeper, more meaningful engagement with the subject.

It was my great pleasure to learn from Mr. Rawlins in AP World History. I consider myself very fortunate to have been taught by such a dedicated and inspiring educator. Mr. Rawlins showed exceptional care for his students—always arriving early to prepare the classroom and delivering dynamic lessons that blended clear lectures with engaging discussions. His detailed feedback on essays, down to small grammar errors, greatly improved my writing and attention to detail. Under his guidance, I built a strong foundation in world history and strengthened my critical thinking. He helped me understand how historical events connect and influence today’s world. Thanks to his excellent instruction, I achieved a score of 4 on the AP exam, and many of his students earned top scores of 4 or 5. I highly recommend Mr. Rawlins as an outstanding educator who truly goes above and beyond for his students.

I am writing with great enthusiasm to recommend Mr. Peter Rawlins as a tutor on Find Tutors. I was his student in AP World History, and he is one of the most outstanding educators I have ever encountered. His lessons were meticulously prepared, explaining complex concepts with clarity and structure. He held high standards, reinforced accurate definitions, and encouraged active participation through presentations, guiding us to think critically and express ideas confidently. He also used diagrams and timelines to make history accessible and memorable. Mr. Rawlins was deeply attentive to students’ understanding, offering patient support in and outside of class. His feedback was exceptionally detailed, and he carefully corrected grammar and expression, which strengthened our writing. When I asked to study for the SAT U.S. History Subject Test, he designed a tailored plan and taught me personally, showing true dedication. Thanks to his guidance, every student in our class scored at l
