District Director, Bakersfield tutoring

Delia Navarro

District Director

A cum laude graduate from the University of California, Irvine with roots here in the central valley, I knew from a young age that my life’s work would be helping others. Working at Sylvan has allowed me to do just that. Having the opportunity to observe students realizing and reaching their fullest potential on a daily basis is extremely rewarding.

Director of Education, Bakersfield tutoring

Patrick Acosta

Director of Education

While gowing up in the outlying area of Kern County, I always envisioned myself entering into the education field. Working at Sylvan has provided me with the opportunity to see students achieve academic growth and build self-confidence, which they translate into their everyday lives. Seeing this growth has provided me with a sense of fulfillment and satisfaction. My educational experience includes earning a CA Multiple Subject Credential from Point Loma, a B.A. from CSUB (Sociology), and an A.A. from Bakersfield College (American Sign Language). When not working at Sylvan, I enjoy spending time with my wife and daughter.
