  • My 16 year old has been working with one of Nena's tutor's for two years. He has now started to work with my 13 year old. Two very different kids with different personalities and different needs. He has a fun and creative way of explaining things and has been able to adapt to their different learning styles. He is a fantastic tutor and reflects Nena's professionalism, standard of excellence and understanding kids and how best to teach them. I highly recommend CAC!

  • Nena was a terrific tutor. Her calm, methodical approach to studying for the AP Euro exam helped my son focus on both the minute, necessary details and the broader subject themes. He scored a 5 on the exam - thanks!

  • After struggling through the first few months of AP Language and Composition, my family decided to get the help I needed from Nena.  From the first session, I knew that we made the right decision.  She was easy to talk with and showed genuine care for me.  She leads tremendous discussions that I could bring to my class every day.  We began to see results immediately.  I became more consistent on my quizzes and tests, and I began to feel confident as I walked into class because I knew that I had been prepared extremely well.  I would recommend her to anybody looking for someone who cares and who will work tirelessly to help a student reach his/her goals.  She completely changed my approach to English overnight, and I am eternally grateful.

  • Nena is the absolute best at what she does!!! She has helped me grow so much working with her over the past ten years. She isn't just challenging, she's engaging and thoughtful in a manner uncommon to many of educators, in my experience. Nena has brought out the best in both my writing and critical thinking. Not only has she helped me get into the colleges of my choice, but she's continued to help me grow as a writer and a human being. I would recommend her to anyone seeking to further their education in any way. I can wholeheartedly  say you will never find a better tutor. THANK YOU, NENA!!!

  • CAC is made up of a great team of productive tutors. Nena listens and understands her clients needs and directs a specific tutor to teach whatever subject is needed. My eighth grader initially used her to learn the necessary test taking skills for the ISEE and has continued to use her for his challenging school assignments. Although her expertise is English and Literature, her team also includes a great tutor that has the patience to teach Math and Science. She's a rare gem that definitely can build up your child's confidence and help improve his/her grades and scores.

  • Shortly after Nena started working with our son, who was struggling with English. Within a few weeks, his teacher came up to me and asked what we have been doing different because he improved dramatically. He continued to work with Nena and as we started the new school year, he took all the amazing tools Nena worked with him on and he is doing so well at school this year. Nena doesn't only work with the students on the subject but at making sure that they understand it the from A To Z the right way. If all teachers were like Nena, our children would be in a much better place and have brighter future. We are blessed to have Nena and are so thankful for her.
