Biography

Young-mee Yu Cho is Associate Professor of the Korean Language in the Department of Asian Languages and Cultures at Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey in the USA. While regularly supervising the four-level Korean program that offers Korean Major and Minor, she initiated the K-12 New Jersey Korean Teacher Certification in 2008 and developed "The Korean-English Translation/Interpreting Certificate Program" to start in Fall 2020. She is one of the five authors of the first four volumes of the definitive Korean language textbook series, Integrated Korean (2000-2019) adopted by more than 70 universities in North America and Oceania. A new co-authored series for heritage learners, Integrated Korean: Accelerated 1 & Accelerated 2 will be published in 2020. As the 5th President of the American Association of Teachers of Korean (AATK) (2006-2009), she spearheaded the publication of the National Standards for Korean Language Learning (2012, with Korean as the 12th  language in the new edition of the National Standards for Foreign Language Education in the 21st Century, ACTFL Publications). Her interest in curriculum development and instructional strategies resulted in the College Korean Curriculum Inspired by National Standards for Korean (CKC) as a special edited issue of the journal, Korean Language in America (2015). Besides her engagement as foreign language educator, she continues to do research on Korean phonology, morphology, and pragmatics.
