Knowing the game is one thing.
Teaching it is another.

Knowing how to play American Mah Jongg doesn’t mean you automatically know how to teach it. The hard part isn’t the rules. It’s breaking them down for beginners without overwhelming them: where to start, how to explain the card, how to walk a table through the Charleston, and how to keep a room full of new players from getting lost.

Great teaching needs a clear, gradual structure, not just years at the table.

American Mah Jongg 101 – The Teaching Edition gives you that structure. It turns everything you already know into a calm, beginner-friendly class, one lesson at a time.

Three tools. One calmer way to teach.

Teaching beginners is not about explaining every rule at once. It is about knowing what to introduce now, what to demonstrate, and what can wait until the next lesson.

The Teaching Edition gives you practical support before class, at the table and throughout the whole learning journey.

Start with the
Instructor Playbook.

Start with the Instructor Playbook.

The American Mah Jongg Instructor Playbook is your practical teaching reference for planning each lesson and guiding beginners through new concepts with clarity.

Use it to prepare your explanations, anticipate the moments that need an extra example, and decide what your students need to understand next, without trying to teach the whole game in one sitting.

Less: “Where do I begin?”
More: confidence in your next explanation, demonstration and activity.

Arrive ready with the Class Checklist.

Arrive ready with the Class Checklist.

The Class Checklist for Instructors puts the practical details in one clear view before your students arrive. It helps you prepare the essentials, start class with focus, and give every lesson the same consistent experience.

When you are not worrying about what you might have forgotten, you have room to notice who needs reassurance, where the group needs to slow down, and when it is time to move on.

Less: last-minute mental juggling.
More: a calm, prepared start for you and your students.

Then lead with the
7-Lesson Curriculum.

Then lead with the 7-Lesson Curriculum.

Your students don’t need the whole game explained in a single sitting. They need a progression that makes sense: first the tiles, then the card, then the table, then the moments where the game comes alive.

The curriculum gives you a clear teaching sequence, so every lesson has a purpose and every new concept has somewhere to land.

Your students don’t need more information. They need the right next lesson.

Your students don’t need more information.
They need the right next lesson.

You don’t have to turn every beginner class into a full lecture on American Mah Jongg. You don’t have to teach from a pile of notes, stop to search for the next resource, or hope you remember the order that worked last time.

You need a framework that respects both sides of the table: the knowledge you already have, and the journey your students are just starting.

The Teaching Edition brings those two together. You teach with more clarity, your students learn with more confidence, and the game gets the beginning it deserves.
