Actually, I think, with the Gridder template, translations aren’t super important.
The main feature I want is basically like this:
MAP AT THE TOP (This map will show current customers location and all nearby practitioners)
BELOW THE MAP- a list of all practitioners that can be sorted by categories of location such as cities/country.
Then finally, a way I can distinguish practitioners by their level, advanced, beginner, etc.
I will need to integrate Polylang after all.
I will need to have only those practitioners who speak English listed on the English side. and only those practitioners who offer sessions in Korean on the Korean side.

RE: Is there a way I can have a general map on a page that shows all nearest practitioners? i.e. someone comes to my page, clicks on practitioners and it will show them all the nearest practitioners.
Sorry, no, Connections does not yet have a cluster map feature with geolocation.
RE: Can I assign badges to different practitioners based on level, i.e. Advanced practitioners, beginners, etc. Or would this just be done with categories.
Yes, using categories would be a good solution.
You could use the free Split Categories addon to split those categories out. Here’s the link:
Please note, this is an advanced addon and does not include support. That said, if there’s bugs, I’ll definitely fixem 🙂
RE: is this Polylang integrated? i.e. can I create listings in both English and my choice language based on the language switcher.
Not specifically. What you can do is create a parent category named “Languages” add the different languages as children categories. The you would add your entries in each language associating then to correct category. The on your directory page, using you transition plugin you would use the Connections shortcode with the category shortcode option set to the correct language for each page translation.
Hope this makes sense!
