Can I join even though I can't speak my target language well?
Of course you can! Everybody has to start from somewhere right? If you feel uncomfortable speaking your target languages, just communicate by using your native language until you feel confident enough to explore other languages. Our organizers will make sure that there are no communication problems by sitting you at a place that can accommodate you and the other members of the group. The only thing we ask from you is to attend with a positive, confident, and most importantly, exertive attitude. We promise it will make everything better and easier for everybody participating.
What types of people can join?
Personal financial gain, religious proselytisation, philandering, and other similar types of conduct is not allowed at YOLOGLEX. Members who are negative, rude, and vulgar will also not be tolerated. Trying our best to become the types of members we wish to have and meet at YOLOGLEX is the key to having a rewarding and successful Meetup.
What is Language Exchange?
Language exchange is when two or more people who speak different languages speak to each other in order to practice and teach a foreign language through conversation. Also known as conversation exchange, this is usually achieved by two native speakers teaching one-another their native language.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Meetup?
Meetup is a social networking site that allows you to find and join groups related to your own personal interests. However, instead of just talking about these interests online, Meetup is used to organize offline and in-person meetings in your area. Common locations for Meetup groups include cafes, restaurants, and sometimes even at parks. Meetup is a great resource for meeting new people, getting involved in your community, and being more active with an interest you enjoy. Best of all, it's completely free to sign up for an account and get started. www.meetup.com
Do I have to pay something to join?
Absolutely not! YOLOGLEX is comepletely non-profit. So what's the catch? There is none. Other than our simple Meetup rules, there's nothing else you have to do or abide by. We only ask the same from our members. Please do not join if you are planning to use YOLOGLEX for reasons other than what the Meetup is intended for.
