Daejeon English conversation guide
Beginner English conversation in Daejeon: can I start if I can barely speak?
Even if you can barely say a word in English, a small group of people at your level makes starting easy. nurio study splits learners from beginner (L1) to advanced (L4) with a level test and recommends a leader-led group. Up to 4 learners meet weekly in Dunsan-dong, Gung-dong, Eunhaeng-dong, Gwanpyeong-dong, and 4 sessions cost KRW 200,000.
Can a complete beginner join an English conversation study?
Yes. What matters is not your current level but whether you are with people like you. In mixed-level groups the strongest speakers tend to do the talking, so as a beginner, ask how levels are split first.
How are levels split?
After you apply, nurio study runs a short writing and speaking level test. Based on the result we place you from beginner (L1) and lower-intermediate (L2) up to advanced (L4), and recommend a group of members at a similar level.
The level test is not an exam; it finds the right starting point. It is fine to say you don't know.
How should I prepare for my first class?
- Practise a three-sentence self-introduction. It does not need to be perfect.
- Think of one thing that happened to you recently; it makes starting a conversation easier.
- If a word comes up you don't know, ask. Your leader will rephrase it simply.
Tips for beginners to keep going
- For the first few weeks, aim to attend every week rather than to improve fast.
- Reuse one or two expressions from class the following week.
- Mistakes are expected. In a small group you get another turn soon.
