On grass just use larger tires.

The answer is no.
Learn how to fly thats what is important not whether the plane is a taildragger or trike. Your plane was damaged due to a flame out. replace the nose gear and continue learning. Make it into a taildragger after you have mastered it in its "stock" configuration.
Just my 2 cents
