Welcome to Fall 2023!

Hello Dear Students,

My name is Carmen R. Roman-Murray, and I am an instructor in the ESL Noncredit Department at CCSF, Mission Campus. I would like to welcome you to my website. 

Contact me at: croman@ccsf.edu

I hope you can attend my classes right up to the end of the semester. For ESL Noncredit classes, we have an Open Entry/Open Exit policy. This means that you can join a class at any time during the semester— and leave at any time as well. If you have to stop coming to class for a time, I would appreciate it if you could let me know so that I don't drop you from the class.

I can assure you that if you come to all of our classes and follow my instructions, you will improve your English language skills.

Thank you for reading this message, and I will see you in class!

Your teacher Carmen
