Am and C major are the same scales and they contain the same notes. You don't have to change scales for every chord, you play scales over chord progession but not over one chord. Chord consists of notes from it's scale. I'm not good at explanation so you'd better check out this topic.

That is how I studied pentatonic scales:
C major pentatonic scale: A minor pentatonic scale: As you can see, there are the same notes just in different positions. They are: C-D-E-G-A.

You don't necessarily have to change the scale everytime the chord changes.
As a matter of fact most songs and backings can be played with just one scale, for instace E minor penta, because the tonality of the whole thing is Em. Try this, play Em and C chords slowly. Then play E minor pentatonic scale over that. It should sound good, and there's no need to change scale depending on the chord -------------------- Guitars:
