Student Testimonial 
“My tutors help me get my homework done each day.  I feel ready to go to school in the morning. Coming here has made my home a better place.  I spend more time with my mom and brothers in the evening.” 

“The tutors at NDUEC really care about me.  I have two adults and two high school students that help me study and do homework.  They are the best!”
