OPINIONS FROM
STUDENTS AND HAPPY CLIENTS 1.
JAPAN - Mr. Yoji
Nishiyama, President-Nara Import/Export, Inc. Japan: "I
wish I could unwind back the time clock, and go back to
yesterday years. That would enable me to drink once more from
that beneficial influence of the best English teacher I ever
met, Dr. Zilda DePaula. Not being able to do so, I am sending
my son Tomo to Charlotte, NC, to learn ESL at the Second
Language Academy, directed by Dr. DePaula."
2. EUROPE - Floriana Radencovici,I just wanted to take the time to
thank you for the wonderful job you did for me. This was in relation to
the Romanian to English translation and evaluation of the transcript from
the Dimitrie Cantemir Univversity of Bucharest, Romania for my MLT program
at CPCC. Your communication with me, the quality of your translation
and evaluation work, and your commitment and dedication to help me were
simply great. Your excellent reputation, especially with CPCC, helped to
speed up the process, too. Also remarkable about your help was your
extraordinary experience and understanding of the academic realities both
in the US and overseas. This allowed you to be flexible, to optimize the
process, and ask for a very affordable fee for your service.
3.GREECE - Mrs. Maria Kastanas, Manager,
Agrinio Traveler
"When I took English as a Second Language in Charlotte, NC, I
must admit that I was bored under lots of culture shock. Then
Mrs. Zilda DePaula took control of all my problems. I
never thought that her vision and enthusiasm could be so
contagious. She always looked at my potential out there, in
the future. My English proficiency grew at a very fast rate.
In addition to run the Travel Agency, I made a decision to
imitate Mrs. DePaula's approach to leadership and motivation.
My employees enjoy our working set. I will never be able to
thank Mrs. DePaula enough. We call each other all the time.
She is still my mentor."
4. MIDDLE EAST - Mr.
Abdullah Al-Mutawa, Deputy, Instructional Division,
Abu-Dhabi, UAE: "My wife and I were privileged to have Mrs.
Zilda DePaula as our ESL Teacher. The ESL proficiency attained
has enabled us to travel and to attend Training Seminars in
England, South Africa, USA, in order to share the Academic
Training with the entire country. Thanks, Mrs. DePaula, for
your dedication and professionalism
5. SOUTH AMERICA - Isabel Cristina Casanova - Teacher for
Charlotte Mecklenburg School System -
I came to the New York in 1998, and during my first 6 years there I worked as a house cleaner. In my
spare time I had a second job, recycling bottles and cans, which was economically fairly good, although
the job was unqualified. Having graduated in Agronomy at the University in Colombia, I felt that my
8 years of education and experience were useless. In many occasions I underwent depression and frustration,
because I was not making any use of the Education received. My life had no purpose.
The decision to move to Charlotte, NC in 2005 was extremely dificult for me and my family. After one
year one uncertainty I found a part-time job with the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools, as a substitute
worker in the school cafetería. Despite all the benefits I was still unhappy, because my brain was
prepared for higher positions within the School system. One day I was approached by a teacher who
Heard about my University background, and he told me that if my records were properly evaluated I
could be promoted to a much better position. He gave me the phone number of Carolina Polyglot, Inc.
Following his advice I met Dr. William DePaula, the Company President who assisted me the
translation of my transcript and credentials and evaluated them for my employer. His evaluation
was completed and delivered on September 20, 2007. His evaluation of my credentials did the trick,
while I was patiently working and waiting. Finally, the promotion came on August 28, 2008, and I am
now the happiest Spanish Teacher in town! I thank God who granted me this promotion and I also thank
Dr. DePaula for restoring self-image and my enthusiasm for the teaching profession. I will never forget
his words of incentive, his enthusiasm, and his professionalism.
6. BRAZIL: Mr.
Wandir Reple, Vice President, Chase Manhattan Bank:
"Whenever someone ask me where I got the English language
vocabulary needed for my everyday calls overseas, my answer is
Professor Zilda DePaula. When I signed up for the Tutorial
Program at the Second Language Academy in Charlotte, I made
clear to Dr. DePaula that my goal was to master the Banking
and Finance vocabulary. She assigned to me the bank glossary
that I should master. From then on, I got a big push from her
that propelled my career and never stopped. I have referred so
many people to Mrs. DePaula."
7.CENTRAL AMERICA - Diana Ayes Garay - Teacher for Charlotte Mecklenburg School System -
“I was an elementary school teacher in Honduras when my family decided to migrate to the
United States. Having seen people with College Education doing jobs below their training and skills,
I was reluctant when I went to Carolina Polyglot (Second Language Academy), to have my documents
translated and evaluated for employment purposes. I am so pleased to have chosen Carolina Polyglot
to make the academic evaluation of my credentials for employability purposes. Since our first appointment
Dr. DePaula gave me only words of encouragement and also helped me during the completion of the data
collection form. When I brought my Evaluation document to the Human Resources at the CMS School System,
they told me that Carolina Polyglot is a well known and prestigious company in both Carolinas. They also
told me that I should not have any problem getting the job. I am now licensed to teach in any school within
the NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND Program. I strongly recommend Carolina Polyglot to anyone seeking prompt, efficient
and professional attention. Their knowledge of comparative academic study and their evaluation services made
a difference in my live. I have referred many clients to them for translations and credential evaluations.”
8. AFRICA - Mr. Mateta
S. Kanda, District Manager, Esso Standard Oil, Kinshasa:
"My Company sends me all over the world to attend Seminars and
Training Workshops, and it is all tied to my command of the
English language. For that command and proficiency I will
never cease to thank Dr. Zilda DePaula, the most amazing ESL
Professor I ever met. Last year I referred a co-worker to the
Second Language Academy. He is currently there. Recently, I
have been asked to participate at the national level as one of
the presenters. What a challenge! Again, the credit is always
shared with Dr. DePaula."
9. SPAIN/CHARLOTTE: Mrs.
Consuelo Cansler, International Department-Bank of America
- Administrative Assistant for the Latin American Division:
"The reason why I got this position with the Bank of America,
can be explained in just a few words. I studied English as a
Second Language with Mrs. Zilda DePaula. She is a sort of
mentor to me. She is the best example of dedication and
enthusiasm that I know of. She will always be my favorite
teacher."
