Although it was first suggested by Nicholas Copernicus, it was proven by Galileo Galilei. He was the first person to view the cosmos through a telescope. He saw that the planet Venus went through phases, just like the moon. That was the proof that Earth was a planet and it orbited the Sun.
The heliocentric model is the one that replaces the geocentric model because the heliocentric model better described the solar system.
The scientist made the heliocentric model of the solar system. It is a word for the graphical model of our solar system.
The Ptolemaic model is also known as the geocentric model, where the Earth is at the center of the solar system. Scientists refute this because orbital paths show that the solar system is heliocentric.
Its main strength is that it is the model which is universally accepted by everyone. Copernicus put forward a heliocentric model that used circular orbits. That meant he couldn't completely eliminate all the complications of the old geocentric model, such as "epicycles". Later Kepler showed that the planets move in elliptical orbits. The basic idea of the heliocentric model is that the Sun is at the centre. One of the main strengths is the simplicity of the heliocentric model. Kepler's version (still used today) of the model with its elliptical orbits is particularly elegant and simple, with no epicycles.
look it up on dictionary.com :P Dictionary sources don't give a synonym for heliocentric, they give another term for it: The Copernican Model.

I believe you are confusing two things here; there is no such thing as a "heliocentric model of telescope". There is a heliocentric model of our Solar System, and there are telescopes. The two are unrelated.
In the heliocentric model, the sun is at the center of our solar system and the earth is the third planet that orbits it.

the heliocentric theory threathened the church because the church beleived it was a hypothesis, but Galileo was teaching it as if it were proven fact

He is worth knowing about because he revived the Heliocentric modelSome say that he reveled the Heliocentric model but he didn'tBut he was the first person to try to push people to to believe in the Heliocentric model
The Geocentric or Ptolemaic Model put the earth at the center of the Universe. The Heliocentric Model postulated by Copernicus and, before him, Aristarchus, places the Sun at the center of the Solar System. Galileo's observations proved the validity of the Heliocentric Model.
