Cindy Kirkpatrick
I have a huge success story to share. I had just started tutoring and one student had stayed with me from the beginning. She helped with starting online and working the bugs out. She was at about 3rd or 4th-grade reading level at the end of 6th grade. She had been put in a lower reading group with 7th and 8th graders. On a Friday, a few weeks into the new school year, I got a text from her telling me she scored at an 8th-grade reading level at school! HAPPY TEARS! HAPPY TEARS! I'm so overjoyed! I called her and said I was so proud of her, but I didn't want her to be done with me yet. She said she was not done with me yet. This is not to boast, but I'm very proud to be able to say I played a role in this young lady's life no matter how small; after all, she did all the hard work! Her confidence has grown, and she is a hard worker! THIS IS WHY I LOVE TEACHING!! The more success stories I am a part of, the more pumped I get!

"Cindy did a fantastic job tutoring my son for two summers in reading. She met him on his level, challenged him, and achieved his goals. Her schedule was flexible, and he looked forward to working with her. I was so proud of him when he turned the corner in school and didn’t need the supports he had in the past!" |
Jessica Baker
"Mrs. Kirkpatrick's commitment and dedication to her students is second to none. She would always make herself available to work with our son even after hours. She makes learning fun and keeps the students engaged. We noticed a change in our child's academic progress after just one year with Mrs. Kirkpatrick to the point he even earned an academic award at the end of the year."
Elisa
"You were excellent at our meeting (diagnostic testing and consultation) and we like you."

"She's mrs.ckirkpatrick@gmail.com. Kirkpatrick today, but she was our Miss Massie years ago. She taught my daughter for four years, and what a blessing it was to have had a child in her classroom. She gives everything she has to every single student. Her goal is that every child learns, every child succeeds, and every child enjoys the process. She is a gift to education! Cindy Kirkpatrick is both champion and cheerleader, and your child can only prosper under her instruction."
You did not play a "small" part in their lives. Your part was huge and impactful beyond anything you can possibly imagine . . . . "your labor is not in vain . . ." God knows the time you spend with each child; your work, attitude, motivation, and integrity. Nothing goes without His notice, and everything is recorded! How will your history read when in Heaven your earthly deeds are proclaimed? And, you'll get credit for their earthly deeds because you helped shape them into the servants they have become. From a mom: THANK YOU! For never giving up, for always pushing, loving, encouraging, and teaching, teaching, teaching!

I was homeschooling her in her kindergarten year, and her mom was homeschooling her bigger sister. Piper just wasn't getting some of her sounds. We were both getting frustrated, and I asked for help on Facebook through a homeschool group. It wasn't long before I heard from Cindy, and what a blessing she was. She and I talked together, and she was willing to set up a video meeting with Piper. After just one meeting, she helped her more than I could. She knew what her problem was right away and worked with her on it for about an hour. Piper was able to correct her problem because of Cindy. Piper is now in the 2nd grade and is reading at 3rd-grade 9th month and loves it. I am really so thankful for all the help Cindy was able to give her in just one meeting. I would and have recommended her to others. Thank you, Cindy. You were a God send." |

"What a wonderful, devoted teacher, and not only devoted but made sure learning was fun. Not only am I in administration at Outreach, but I had a granddaughter that was in Mrs. Kirkpatrick's classroom from 2015-2016. She loved Mrs. Kirkpatrick and loved learning. She was always challenged to do her best. She made such academic improvement her level of reading, math, and other subjects developed beyond our expectations. Thank you for giving my grandbaby a great head start to her success in academics."
Amy Morales
"Cindy I really appreciated all of your help. You had great ideas and suggestions on ways to encourage and incentivize learning for my son who has ASD and ADHD. He really enjoyed his time with you as well. Cindy is very friendly, encouraging, professional, quick to respond, and a wealth of information."

"I can attest to Mrs. Kirkpatrick's abilities! She is a gifted educator and your children will flourish with her guidance!"
Camille Prentice
"You were my favorite teacher. You taught me a lot about Jesus. I always enjoyed having class with you. I remember that you were a loving, caring, and fun teacher who was always in a good mood and always had us kids laughing along with you. I loved you as my teacher, and if my daughter lived here, I would want you to be her teacher. Love you, Miss Massie."
Chad Prentice
"Words cannot describe how amazing this woman is with not only teaching, but being a positive role model. She helps develop your child to be the smartest individual they can be and helps teach them to become responsible adults. She raises not only great students, but future leaders who can impact those they are around. She teaches from the heart and she's very passionate about what she does. I am currently 25 years old and had the experience of having her in my life for five years, and I recommend anyone who needs guidance or help to use her as your tutor. She won't only impact your grades, but she'll impact your life. A+ rating from me! Oh and by the way, to show how much she care. She attended multiple student graduations after we reconnected with her on FB 10 years later!! She's the best around!"

"Mrs. Kirkpatrick is an amazing teacher. I knew her as Miss Massie back in the day. :) She was my teacher for Pre-K and 1st - 4th grade. She was one of my absolute favorite teachers because she provided an encouraging and loving environment for her students, and she always made learning fun. I remember learning multiplication in her class by listening to a tape that rapped the multiplication tables. It sounds silly, but it made it fun and helped me remember them. We earned paper ice cream scoops for each number we learned our multiplication tables for (numbers 1 - 12) which we got to present on a bulletin board for the whole class to see. Once we learned them all, we got to have an ice cream party! This is just one example of how Mrs. Kirkpatrick keeps her students engaged by making learning fun. I learned so much in her class because she made going to school enjoyable. Mrs. Kirkpatrick really is an awesome teacher!"

"BEST TEACHER EVER!!!"

"Sitting and thinking of the progress my daughter has made in her reading while tutoring with Cindy, and decided I should write a review. First, I would like to start off by saying how skeptical I was. In her ad, she stated her price, and it was less than everyone I had contacted. They were way out of my price range of what I could afford. I thought, well she mustn't be any good. Also, she stated what grade levels she taught. I thought to myself, my daughter is well past the grades she teaches. I decided not to call. When I came across the ad again, I decided to give it a try in hopes that Cindy would accept my daughter. To my surprise she did. After getting the ball rolling I wanted to give up because of the drive, it was way out of our way, but we hung in there. Cindy soon offered us online tutoring that I didn't think would be as effective as face-to-face. I was wrong. We have been tutoring with Cindy since the summer of 2016. My daughter has come a long way. I used to be embarrassed when we were out, and she couldn't pronounce things on a menu. She also would read and never stop at punctuation marks, and she sounded like a robot. Not anymore. She is much, much better. Her teachers have even noticed the difference. Although we still have quite a ways to go, my daughter has come a long way. I would, and have recommended Cindy to every parent I know that has a child having difficulties with reading. Cindy is a true blessing."
Ruby Smith
"If you ever, ever need the perfect person or are searching for a tutor for your child or children, you can end the search. Her name is Mrs. Kirkpatrick (aka Miss Massie). I have two children, a daughter & a son. They were attending Kansas City Public School. My daughter was doing well in school, but my son couldn’t read. I was very concerned about that, so I discussed this issue with his teacher, and she said it was normal for him not to read in 3rd grade. I didn't agree with that, so I began searching for a good private school for my children. I found Outreach Christian School. I enrolled my children in the school. Remember my son was in third grade and couldn't read. This is how the story ends. I met Miss. Massie and she told me he would be alright. She would have him reading. SHE didn't lie!! Within a month, my son was reading. Thank God for her love, dedication, and passion for children. She always wants the best for your child or children. Give her a chance and you won’t regret the choice or decision you made. Continue the great work, Mrs. Kirkpatrick. Now I am sending another child to her. Ronald, Ruby, Roshanda, & Rashad Smith love you. Thanks again for all that you do."
Kathy McCartney Taylor
"She is one of the greats! She is passionate and caring, one of a kind. Kids love her because they know she loves them. If your child is struggling and needs extra help in any subject, I recommend Cindy Kirkpatrick."

"Cindy taught my daughter for two years. Adelia really struggled at school before she met Cindy. I am very pleased with how Cindy worked so closely with Adelia. I am happy to be able to say that Adelia has overcome so many obstacles and is doing very well at school now. I am very grateful to Cindy for all she has done to help my daughter achieve!"
