I just got a TOEFL score, which I took on Dec,19th - was 88 ! ... it's the best score for me and good enough to apply for the MBA program in the U.K... my score was 72 before I take classes. So you guys increased 16 points in a month! Wow! Now I even have a confidence to get a better score if I take one more time. I have no adequate words to express my appreciation!!

Momoe - Japan

Hi! My name is Momoe a former student of Test Success about one month ago.

I took TOEFL on 21st November and the score was 91!

It is my best score in my experience! and also it is enough score for me to apply to university. Thus, I send email you to express my gratitude to Test Success because this school was really great and beneficial for students who strongly need to get TOEFL score like me. In my experience, I have belonged to some kinds of English school since when I was a high school student in order to study for TOEFL. However, I think this school Test Success was the best one which is really valuable for TOEFL in various way even I belonged there for only one month. If I meet someone who need to study for TOEFL, I will recommend your school:)

Thank you very much and I hope more students meet and go to Test Success!:)

Fernanda - Brazil

Thanks to you I reached 98 on my TOEFL exam and I was accepted at Fordham Law School!

Sincerely, to study with you two was a unique experience. I'm so glad and thankful and I mean it. I think TS was fundamental for me to achieve my score on TOEFlL for the following reasons.

First of all, you know exactly how teach TOEFL, which is not easy as people might think it is.

Second of all, TS was the only course that offered me all the tools I needed to improve my skills. For example, STUDYING IN FRONT OF THE COMPUTER IN YOUR CLASSES; having someone correcting my essays and speaking right away; giving feedbacks by the internet and also providing a lot off materials made all the difference.

Finally, I must say that the atmosphere that you built is so great that helped me being less stressed during this period; kept me motivated to go to classes and more confident on my exam, NO DOUBT about it.

I think I can't emphasize enough.

I will keep you posted about my future master and my career.

I would love to celebrate with you soon!!!

All the best

Valentina - Italy

It was so good for me to learn how to approach the TOEFL test thanks to the preparation that I had at TS, I could have a high preparation and I had a very good score in the exam. It is fun and I was successful. I will tell everyone to go to this center to learn how to reach their goal on the TOEFL test exam. It was the best and complete way for me to reach the score that I needed!

Stanislav – Russia

The score (107) I achieved with Test Success gave me the opportunity to fulfill my dream - I already graduated from The University of Chicago Booth School of Business. I am happy to share why Test Success is the best TOEFL school for me.

First, the school provides you with the deep understanding of how your answers are evaluated by ETS. I mean the Speaking and Writing sections, whose evaluations are pretty subjective. It is vital that you follow the certain format and Christopher and Zach will teach you to shape your answers properly.

Second, the approach the teachers invented to master the Reading section is very efficient. I was a good reader before the classes but after the preparation with Christopher I had plenty of time to double-check my Reading work. That reduces the level of stress dramatically. For people who read more slowly, ‘1-L’ technique is a key to success.

Third, Test Success does a great job when modeling a real exam environment. Students work at computers and speak into microphones simultaneously with their classmates – which may be embarrassing at the real exam if you didn’t get used to that.

Fourth, students receive a great deal of preparation materials both online and on paper (books). You start from the materials which are easier than real TOEFL and finish your preparation with the ones which are harder. So, when you come to your exam, it will be easier than what you did at Test Success.

Finally, you will just enjoy the atmosphere at the class. Christopher and Zach are passionate about teaching and they are just amazing people. To add the point from an MBA student - Test Success is the best ‘value-for-money’ you can find in New York City.

Good luck with your goals and dreams!

Alejandra - Venezuela

Test Success prepared me to get a high TOEFL score. The teachers are really good and always give you feedback on your work. It was a great experience.

I was admitted at Columbia University and at The New School, where I am a current candidate for the Graduate Program of International Affairs.

Haitao - China

I gained every goal at Test Success, improving my TOEFL scores, meeting nice fellows, and learning a great methodology to improve my English skills. The teachers are masters of the TOEFL test, and made me feel it's not difficult to get 100+ score. The teaching methodology will continue to benefit me when I go to Graduate School of Business at Stanford University.

Yan - Ukraine

When I took TOEFL first time I got 66, but with the help of Christopher and Test Success’ methods of teaching how to succeed on the test day I got 85. I wish growth and success for Test Success. If you need to get good results, go there it is worth it.

Ipek - Turkey

When I first started to study TOEFL, I thought that it is impossible to get the score I wanted and moreover I got scared:) but then when I went to Test Success, I felt really confident. The way they teach and the way they correct our writing and speaking tasks are unique. When I practiced in class, It was just like the real TOEFL because during the class I got a chance to practice everything I need on TOEFL test. Then I took the TOEFL and I got 85 on my first try.

Thank you so much Christopher, for your great program, strategies and of course your positive energy. You and your course are the best. Thanks again, I am really lucky to get a chance to study with you, I know without your course and your help, I could not get that score.. You are the greatest English teacher I have ever met.. I'm looking forward to seeing you and your family in Turkey:)

Anil - Turkey

Kais - Libya

TOEFL iBT Score: 107 (R:30, L:27, S:23, W:27)

Test Date: May-2009

The teaching and guidance that I received were extremely helpful and it made me ready for the TOEFL test. I really didn't have any surprises. In contrary, I found the test easier than what I expected. In other words, the teachers at "Test Success" know how ETS is handling the test and evaluating the test takers. As a result, you, the test taker, will have such a very solid background about the test beforehand.

Additionally, the courses that I received were not comparable to any other courses I received elsewhere or with someone else. I would highly recommend joining "Test Success" for those people about to enter the TOEFL test, and I am quite confident that they will receive the best TOEFL preparation ever to my knowledge and experience. They will save time and effort, and will be put just on the right direction. Undoubtedly, being taught by such great teachers would be the first step towards success in the real TOEFL test.

Finally, I am now studying my Masters, and as a matter of fact, an essential part of that success is due to "Test Success" teachers's TOEFL preparation method. To conclude, the support that I received is really worth it by all means.

Wish all the best for "Test Success" ...

Akarat - Thailand

Studying at Test Success for four weeks helped me to learn a lot. Especially the reading section. I improved my reading score a lot. The first time I took the TOEFL test my reading score was 9. Then, I went to Test Success and my reading score jumped to 23.

Also, in the class everybody has a great desire to beat the test. This point made me feel I am going in the right direction because everyone has the same goal "to beat the TOEFL"

Pamela - Peru - Pharmacist, New York pharmacy license applicant

I'm finally ready for NAPLEX (National Pharmacy License Examination) thanks to Test Success! After so much struggle and money wasted in private tutors I'm so happy I'm done with TOEFL iBT. Test Success has the best technique to really pass TOEFL. I got 26 in the speaking section and 27 in the writing section, I really wasn't expecting such great scores. I got a total of 99 I'm so happy!! Thanks so much, you are the best!.

Anuar - Astana, Kazakhstan

Frankly speaking, I didn't expect I would score high on the TOEFL. My first results were poor, 71 on the TOEFL iBT. Consequently, I became extremely nervous and couldn't overcome my difficulties on the exam. Then, I went to Test Success and was in the class with Christopher, who definitely directed and taught me new skills. On the first day of class, I figured out that TOEFL was pretty easy to take, you only need self-esteem and to listen carefully to the strategies the teachers give you in class. The strategies that I learned were simply amazing, actually, they were awesome! After eight classes at Test Success, I got 103 on the TOEFL iBT. It is improbable, but I did. Go immediately to Test Success. I’m totally confident you will never regret it.

Francesca - Mexico

I took the TOEFL several times, I went to a lot of places and I wasted my money. Finally I decided to go to Test Success and I finally scored high on the TOEFL.

I got 107! Go to Test Success and don´t waste your money, it´s great!

Enmanuel - Dominican Republic

Well, this is my story; believe it or not, my life depended on how well my TOEFL score was. I was really scared; I searched the whole internet trying to find a miracle that could help me to pass the test… Guess what? I found it. Test Success NYC really helped me with every section of the TOEFL and gave me strategies that developed not only the test taking abilities but my academic skills too that will help me through my masters program. I needed a score of 80 and I got 93 on my first try. Test Success really helped me to save my time and money. Thank you!

Moheb - Egypt

I'm an Egyptian pharmacist, I needed a high score on the TOEFL to continue the pharmacy licensing process in the U.S.

After 8 classes at Test Success, I got 27 in speaking and 24 writing,which were the most difficult parts for me. Test success has very simple and effective strategies. Another important thing is that they give you a very specialized responses that helps you to improve your weak areas. I'm so grateful to Test Success.

Mariaclara - Italy

Great great school!! I was enthusiastic since the first day of the free trial. The energy, passion and professional approach of the teachers is very compelling!

Focused on tactics, they really teach you what strategy you need to use to succeed on the TOEFL iBT. I was pretty desperate because before Test Success, I attended another school, but they didn’t teach me the real strategy to beat the TOEFL. Instead, after only 2 weeks of practice I got 96! Now, I’m finishing the course to achieve 100 thanks to Test Success.

They’re really different in human behavior too, the relationship is at the same time professional and friendly and they don’t hesitate to help you. Lots of experience teaching, understanding what is behind the TOEFL, small classes to maximizing the learning, lots of practice materials and the huge use of technology are

the ingredients of that little pearl of school.

Inference questions? Author’s purpose? Now they’re so easy with Test Success!

I really would recommend Test Success to anyone who needs to improve their score, it’s the key to success!

Lina - France

I really enjoyed taking those classes , every time I was learning something new . He was teaching TOEFL in very fun way, but still very serious. We practice TOEFL on computers, which helped a lot. We actually could record ourselves and we were given feedback, so we could identify our weaknesses and try to get better. The techniques and tricks I learned in this class were the key to the great score I got : 116 ! I followed Christopher's teaching when I was studying by myself and was very prepared when I passed the test. I almost didn't need to study outside of the class , because of all the great training I had.

Daichi - Japan

Thanks to your great support, I got 116 (30/30/28/28)!! Without your support, it would have been impossible. Thank you so much again for your support

Kyria - Benin

The classes at Test Success are personalized and wonderful. The key thing there is that everyone is carried along, no one is ever left behind. This creates a warm and friendly environment that is excellent for studying for the TOFEL exam especially for first timers like me. Christopher and Amy also encouraged me to practice, practice and practice. It was their slogan. This was what helped me achieve my score. I had 111 and I am very happy that I studied at Test Success.

Dewi- Bali

I really recommend to TOEFL test takers, whether it is your first TOEFL or not to join this class because you will learn a great strategy to get high score in just 8 meetings.

Especially The strategy for doing reading & integrated writing & listening is really very good.
