A dork is usually someone who is socially awkward and un-cool.

Hi Arena
If you say that someone is a dork, you think they dress badly in old-fashioned clothes and behave very awkwardly in social situations. pretty much like "nerd"
below are some examples
He is such a dork that he always wears thick galsses and reads his book in a corner!
Hope it helps you to get the picture,
so the statement is saying,
in Chinese 我们会帮你说出一口地道的语言而不是像个傻瓜一样!

jeltzz is correct. It really has nothing to do with the way somebody dresses but how they interact socially.

Thanks for your help of giving me a really clear explanation! Arena.

Calling a person a "dork" is impolite. It is like calling them "dumb" or that they are not like everyone else.
