TESTIMONIALS
INTRODUCTION
When our prospective students go looking for information about our school and the TOEFL Preparation course
that we offer, they want to know more than how much we charge. They also want to know what kind of service we provide,
and they want to get an idea for what kind of experience they will have with our school. Therefore, they go looking for
information about what others have had to say. The most common source of this information online is feedback. The comments
and suggestions of our students and alumni are very important to us since they help us make the educational process at Terra
Nova as close to perfection as possible. It is also very important that all our prospective students see this feedback here,
which proves the educational process at Terra Nova to be truly democratic and open for constructive criticism. This page contains reviews and testimonials submitted by our
students in the 2009-2010 academic year. We would like to thank them all most sincerely for sharing their ideas,
opinions, experiences, and feelings. We deeply appreciate their contributions!

Hello to everyone who is reading this feedback!
I encourage all of you regardless of age to enroll in the TOEFL
Preparation course taught at Terra Nova. The quality of education
here is much better than anything you have seen before. I ensure
you, people, that you will not find a better place in our country
for learning English. You will acquire here a lot of information
about the United States, nature, politics, etc.
Guys, if you are undecided (which is a normal state of mind in
Moldova), if you are trying to choose the best English school and
still have doubts, call Terra Nova or just stop by the office to
talk to their TOEFL instructor. If you entrust Terra Nova with
your TOEFL preparation, I guarantee that you will not be
disappointed.
Best wishes to you all,

Terra Nova is a great place where students prepare for succeeding
in taking their TOEFL tests. However, it is very important that
besides English people learn many things about democracy and
contribution. Here I met new people who are interested in their
education and who have some ideals to follow. I am very thankful
to Andrew for his great job and I am sure that all students who
attend his classes know that he is the best English teacher. The
TOEFL creates new possibilities. It is a chance to enjoy the most
beautiful and developed places in the world. TOEFL preparation is
an important step in reaching the most daring goals. Thus, I
advice all people to come here to improve their English or at
least to meet Andrew.
Best regards,

The TOEFL Prep class at Terra Nova was a very helpful class for
me. I think that it made me more confident in my speaking skills.
At our public schools, we study a kind of dead English which is
not spoken in reality. At Terra Nova, we were taught to speak
contemporary English, and it was very cool. I reckon that you,
guys, should attend Terra Nova because it is the only place in
Chișinău where you can become a good English
speaker.

Think about your future and the future of our country. Ask not
what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your
country! Strive for excellence! Believe in the impossible and
defy all the odds. Study hard, improve in all directions, do not
waste your time on trifles. Give your care and support to those
who need help. Make this world a better place to live in. Always

Studying at Terra Nova was a tremendous experience. I believe
that Terra Nova is a unique English school in our country. The
teacher is very knowledgeable and uses an original approach to
teaching. Thus, we had debates on controversial issues that
consequently helped us better understand the Western mentality
and improve our English. Moreover, Andrei tried to explain to us
new concepts and to cultivate in us such values as contribution,
social responsibility, tolerance, generosity, integrity,
patriotism. This helped us enrich our knowledge of the world,
strengthen our character, and, of course, improve our prospects.
I recommend the TOEFL Preparation course taught at Terra Nova to

Taking the TOEFL Preparation course at Terra Nova was a really
good experience. I personally think that Terra nova is the best
place in Moldova where people can prepare for the TOEFL test. The
instructor is a great teacher and a great friend. He not only
helped me improve my English but also inspired me with his
enthusiasm, intelligence, positive attitude, and strong sense of
commitment and contribution. I enjoyed our class discussions
about the United States and the American way of living and doing
business. Andrei insisted that I apply to a number of
universities in the U.S. Andrei is a really well informed person
because he has studied in the U.S. and his knowledge of English,
the TOEFL, and the United States has been gained from experience,
not from books.
P.S.: As far as I know, I am one of the few Gagauz who have
studied at Terra Nova, and I sincerely hope that Andrei will have
more Gagauz students in the future.

Attending the TOEFL Prep course was both exciting and useful. It
provides all the information and strategies one needs to succeed
on the test. Now I know what to expect to see on the test, so
that a lecture on a science topic won't take me by surprise.
Here, you'll be given what you need or even more, and the only
thing that is up to you is the effort that you'll decide to make.
Besides the good preparation that you will receive (if attending
the course), it is also fun and interesting due to the TOEFL
instructor who broaches diverse topics, which makes the classes
more interactive and the hours seem to fly by. What's more,
you'll find out a lot of new things about our country of
wonders.
All in all, I think Andrei did a great job and I am very thankful
for this.

I would definitely recommend Terra Nova's TOEFL iBT preparation
course to anyone who wants to get more than 100 points on the
TOEFL. Of course, individual performance also depends on the
attitude and effort put during the study. This is the only school
in Moldova with a real professional, who has been preparing
students for the TOEFL for more than 10 years, for whom English
is a native language, and who really enjoys his work. Sometimes
it seems that it is his hobby, not work. I like Andrew's positive
attitude to each student. All alumni of Terra Nova can visit the
school on Saturdays to ask questions, get recommendations, meet
new people, talk to current and former students, or just watch
movies. So, join Terra Nova and you will gain a lot of knowledge,
have an excellent atmosphere, and socialize with intelligent

experience. During the lessons, I discovered new and useful
information not only about the English language and the TOEFL but
also about many other fields, such as geography, biology,
history, etc. Fifteen weeks of TOEFL preparation at Terra Nova
will remain a great and unique adventure in my memory. Thanks a
lot, Andrei!

Practice makes perfect! It is an individual choice whether to
prepare for the TOEFL test alone or at a specialized TOEFL
preparation center. I am happy that I signed up for this course,
because even though I was confident in my knowledge of English, I
did not realize my weak points without an opinion from a teacher.
The variety of test samples that we were given helped me a lot in
improving my speaking, comprehension, writing, and note-taking
skills. The atmosphere is friendly and calm, thus concentration
is not a problem. I also learned a lot of things related to
forestry, astronomy, economics, etc. Terra Nova's TOEFL
preparation course is an experience worth having in life. I
believe that nobody will ever regret taking this course.

It was my first TOEFL preparation course but I didn't study hard
because I couldn't find time to study. Even though I didn't
prepare for the lessons, I learned a lot of information and
revised my knowledge of English and learned about the TOEFL test.
I recommend this course to those who need to take the TOEFL and
get high scores.

Thank you for everything, Andrei. You are good at what you do.
This course helped me pass the TOEFL. Thank you, Andrei, for your
care and understanding, since it is really hard to change the
mind of a teenager.

This course helped me not only to improve my English and to
prepare for the TOEFL, but also to change my way of thinking into
a better one. I became a better citizen, I am better prepared for
this mature life. I discovered a lot of new, unfamiliar to me,
things about the U.S., politics, education, forestry, and in
general about everything, because Andrei is a wunderkind, the
best teacher I have ever met.

I would recommend Terra Nova's TOEFL preparation course to anyone
who needs to pass this test or just to improve the level of
English. TOEFL preparation is also very interesting and
captivating because of useful information that Andrew shares with
his students. This course really helped me not only to improve my
English but also to broaden my horizons. I would like to thank
Andrew for making me see a lot of things from a different point
of view, for example, environmental problems or personal
contribution to society in general.

Dear Andrei,
Please accept my deep appreciation of your effort to prepare a
younger generation for a better future. It was really fun being a
part of it. Your TOEFL preparation course is a good example of
how things should be taught; be it in schools or universities.
The values that you cultivate in your students make them observe
the world from a different perspective and gain new attitudes
towards many important issues. Please prepare a follower, so our
children can learn proper English in the future.
Thank you, Andrei, you are the best there is.
