Terra Nova English Language Center is a very good educational
institution for those who want to prepare for the TOEFL. The
TOEFL Preparation course offered at Terra Nova helped me to
improve considerably my knowledge of not only English but also
many other fields, such as geography, biology, chemistry,
history, etc. Furthermore, the learning process, facilitated by a
friendly atmosphere, candies, tea, and coffee, was very exciting.
I think that Andrei is the best teacher I have ever had. I
definitely recommend this school to those who are determined to
achieve great results on the TOEFL and to broaden their
horizons.

As a whole, I'm very satisfied with the high quality of the
classes that I attended. The way our course was organized
contributed to learning new words, understanding grammar, and
improving our style in talking and writing essays. Besides, our
TOEFL instructor constantly shared with us the advice, hints, and
methods that are necessary for passing the TOEFL successfully,
which was very useful. I do highly appreciate the teaching style
of our teacher, the productive way of combining learning with
fun, theory with relevant examples, discussions, and videos.
During the classes, we practiced exercises for every section of
the TOEFL: writing, speaking, listening, and reading. In
addition, I consider that it is relevant to mention the
importance of newly acquired information in different fields,
such as history, literature, geography, geology, agriculture,
chemistry, physics, and others, which I found very interesting
and useful. I wish we had had even more discussions and debates
in class. To conclude, I would like to thank our TOEFL instructor
for his contribution to our growth and development.

This is not just a simple course in preparation for the TOEFL
test. It is more than this. It helps you enhance yourself as a
person. It broadens your cultural horizons, it teaches you the
real meaning of tolerance, and it strongly encourages you to be
the person you really are... Another thing that I liked very much
is that different opinions are respected.
Andrei, you are a person of honor. You really contribute
assiduously to the process of building a free and democratic
society we all want to live in.
P.S.: Candies and tea make the atmosphere even more interesting.
They give a touch of childhood and help the mind relax...

Studying at Terra Nova was a unique experience for me. Besides
learning English in a very interesting, instructive, and
entertaining way, I expanded the bounds of my general knowledge
in such fields as physics, biology, chemistry, and arts. Also, I
supplemented my personal vocabulary with smart words, managed to
overpass the fear of discussing difficult topics or unknown
issues with my colleagues, and adopted a new set of democratic
values.
Thank you, Andrei, for your patience, professionalism, for
sharing your immense experience with us, and teaching us that

There are several reasons why I would advice other people to
attend the TOEFL Preparation course offered at Terra Nova. First,
it is a very helpful experience for every person who wants to
improve his or her English and to prepare for the TOEFL. Second,
the course gives the students an opportunity not only to improve
English but also to gain knowledge in different domains, such as
economics, biology, geography, chemistry, and physics, which can
be very useful while taking the TOEFL. In addition, the teacher
has great experience in living, working, and studying in the U.S.
so that he can give some very practical advice to those who need
it. Finally, the course gives the students a great opportunity to
meet different interesting people, and the friendly atmosphere in
the classroom creates perfect conditions for making friends and
spending time nicely. I will certainly miss the course as it was
a very enjoyable and important experience in my life.

I find the course very useful and interesting. It helps to get a
clear picture of the TOEFL structure and helps to refresh and
considerably improve English skills. The TOEFL instructor is very
keen and intelligent. He organizes the course in a very intensive
and, at the same time, comprehensible manner. I personally
enjoyed the time spent in class. The instructor succeeded in
creating an amicable atmosphere in class, so that the time just
flew by for me.
I believe that this is the best TOEFL preparation course
available in Moldova and I am very grateful to my instructor,
Andrei Fiodorov, who besides teaching me in class devoted to me a
lot of his free time in order to assist me with my applying for a

I do strongly support the idea that Terra Nova is the best
English school that has ever been in Moldova. First, I learned a
great many things from its charismatic instructor. Andrei showed
me that I need to value the diversity of cultures and always
treat people as I would like to be treated myself. He changed my
entire outlook on and attitude toward life and social values.
Second, it gave me a huge opportunity to discover new horizons of
the English language and American culture. Moreover, it provided
strict rules about how not to be late and not to use mobile
phones during the lesson :)
Finally, it gives a great opportunity not only to prepare for the
TOEFL, but also to learn grammar, vocabulary, speaking,
listening, and writing.
Now, after three months and a half, I consider my studying at
Terra Nova as a big achievement and an important step in my
life.

are reading the information in this section attend the course for
three main reasons: first, because of the information you get;
second, because of the atmosphere in the classroom, it is very

the teacher. He is the best one from all that I know. His
strategy of teaching is the one that motivates you to study more.
He is a smart person; it is really interesting to speak to him.

material was very comprehensive and difficult, Andrei managed to
combine hard work with fun. We were discussing the most
interesting topics and the classes were passing so fast that
three and a half hours were like 20 minutes.
Andrei, thank you very much, I enjoyed everything, from
listening, writing, reading, and speaking to tea, coffee,

The first time I met Andrei, I thought that the next 3.5 months
were going to be very difficult. The English level of Andrei and
his way of teaching at first seemed very strange to me. I could
not believe that he was a man from Moldova but after the first
lesson I was totally impressed. The ability of making time pass
in a productive and interesting way shows an innate skill. I
really enjoyed my time at Terra Nova and I will recommend it to
everyone who needs to prepare for the TOEFL or polish up English

I think that Terra Nova is a good TOEFL preparation course. When
I found out that the class lasted for more than 3 hours, I
thought it would be impossible to spend so much time learning
English. But when I started to attend this course, I was really
interested and positively surprised. I liked the TOEFL
instructor, his way of thinking, teaching... This course was not
only TOEFL preparation but also a great opportunity to find out
something new, interesting, to discuss important issues, to
understand the points of view of other students.
This course includes 3 TOEFL simulations which are very helpful.
After these model tests I don't feel anxious about my real TOEFL

I believe that this course is one of a kind. First of all, it is
so because of Andrei's professional qualities. You cannot easily
find such a versatile person in another English school in
Chisinau. The knowledge that he shared with us improved our
grammar, comprehension, and writing skills. He was the catalyst
ensuring the efficient uptake of different scientific, economic,
and historical theories, which are frequently used in the TOEFL
sections. However, what I liked most in this course was the warm,
friendly, and cheerful atmosphere, which I am already
missing.

the end of the course.
If you are smart and ingenious, I recommend this course as your
next challenge. The discussions held during the course included a
variety of topics: science, politics, forestry, lifestyle,
relationships, etc. I liked it!

I would like to say one more time that this course was very
useful for me. Here I could share my ideas with smart students
and learn a lot of information from a smart teacher. Andrei has
knowledge from different fields and it is impossible not to get
at least something useful from the lessons. Here we analyzed and
discussed many different issues in detail. Everything was
wonderful. Thank you, Andrei, and all the best to you!!!

This TOEFL preparation course requires a lot of work, and you
have to be interested in studying and doing your homework and
learn. There is a lot of information regarding a wide range of
fields (geography, anatomy, sociology, you name it) given in
class with clear explanations, which helps not only to understand
the topics the students work on but also to enrich the general
knowledge and raise the level of intelligence of the students.
Nice people in the class make the process funny and serious at
the same time!

I would like to say that the TOEFL Preparation course at Terra

Terra Nova is the best school in Moldova. I learned a lot and
even more about a bunch of things I wasn't aware of, and I
definitely think that the course was a wonderful experience. I
met great people and I had a lot of fun. I remember the first day
when I came here and presented myself. "My name is Corina and I
need 79 points." Well, after 3 months I took the TOEFL and I
received 109 points, which definitely exceeded my expectations.
Apply, come, learn, have fun, and get the maximum score!

This course is very useful for people who know exactly what they
want, maybe not decided yet to what university to apply, but at
least people with attitude and of course a good command of
English. These lessons helped me a lot because this TOEFL
preparation is designed in such a way that it really helps you
get ready for the test, makes you feel more confident. After
finishing this course, you will know everything about the TOEFL
and how to do your best.

I really enjoyed this 3.5-month course. For me it was very
useful. The atmosphere in class is amazing, so much fun and so
much knowledge at the same time. I also learned a lot about
democracy, found out a lot of new things about the United States
and other countries. This information is not only interesting but
also useful for the TOEFL. I advise everyone to come take the
course.

really learned a lot, not only improved my vocabulary and grammar
but also enlarged my knowledge in astronomy, forestry, biology,
and many other fields. This period of time from January until now
has been really great. I can apply now to Erasmus University and
many doors are now open for me. I will miss a lot my TOEFL

Today is the 7th of May, and it is my last class at Terra Nova.
It is a very sad moment for me because I understand that there
will be no funny and interesting lessons afterwards. It is hard
to believe that from next week I will not see Andrew, my
classmates, and my TOEFL preparation books. I really enjoyed all
the time spent here. Of course, my English level increased and
now I am ready to do any TOEFL test, but while attending Terra
Nova I built many good relationships with amazing people. But
most of all I am glad that my teacher was Andrew because he is a
really great guy. He knows a lot and he is doing what he is
supposed to do in the best way. I hope that I will encounter many
people like Andrew because such people are not only professionals
in their fields but also good friends. Thank you, Terra Nova!

I recommend all people to take the TOEFL Preparation course at
Terra Nova before taking the real test because of several
reasons. First, while preparing for the TOEFL here, you can learn
not only English but also a lot of information about sciences and
arts. Second, I enjoyed the atmosphere in class. It is much more
interesting to study here than at other English schools located
in Chisinau. Third, I took 3 TOEFL simulations at the end of the
course, which was very useful to me, because I could see what
score I would get on the real TOEFL. Finally, I am satisfied with
the TOEFL instructor here; he is an awesome guy and a great
teacher. In conclusion, I would like to say that in my opinion
this is one of the best TOEFL preparation schools in Chisinau and
I suggest taking this course before the actual TOEFL test. Thank
you, Andrei!!!

I attended a lot of English courses during my life, and I can
strongly affirm that Terra Nova is the best English school in
Moldova. Terra Nova means a good ambiance, team work, and a
really professional teacher. I recommend those people who have a
good level of English and want to get ready for the TOEFL iBT to
take the TOEFL Preparation course offered at Terra Nova, which
develops not only speaking, reading, listening, and writing
skills but also general knowledge. You won't find anywhere such
an interesting teacher from whom you can learn a lot. The lessons
are organized in a very good way - they are relaxing and at the
same time very productive. I acquired a lot of information during
this semester and I did not feel tired or bored. Grammar is
explained in a way that everyone can easily understand. Here is
the only place in Chisinau where you can test yourself and see
your TOEFL score because only at Terra Nova there are TOEFL
simulations. This school is a treasure. I wish that all courses
were like this and, last but not least, all teachers were like
Andrei!!!

can get so much useful information and knowledge. Andrei is not only a very
experienced English teacher, but also a very educated and smart
