Moon Kyoung (Christine) Cho，博士

My research interests encompass several different areas: second language speaking, intonation and pragmatics, English as Medium of Instruction, and second language research methods. These topics, while quite diverse, culminate in my recent study in which I studied Korean EFL students’ challenges in using English intonation to express emotion. I developed an initial interest in intonation – the music of language – some years ago and now find myself helplessly drawn to the sound of English. I also think that there is something special about the emotional domain of second language acquisition; the more I study, the more the subject seems to captivate.
