~FAQ~
Q: My native language isn't English, Korean, Japanese or Chinese, can I still come?
A: Our community is mostly native or proficient speakers of those four languages and they are the languages we support people to speak and learn. If you are not a proficient speaker of one of these, you may find yourself a bit left out. You're still welcome to join, though it may not be the best exchange for you
Q: Are you teachers? Is this a formal class?
A: Nope! We are all volunteers and language learners. Some of us may coincidentally be teachers but we really don't come to teach - we come to talk, laugh and make friends!
Q: Can I turn up late?
A: Yup! The event is casual and you are welcome to arrive and leave when you like, though we recommend arriving early to find a good seat.
