Teach American
mahjong with
confidence.
Whether you're dreaming about teaching your first class or ready to scale a full teaching business, there's a place for you here. Find the right fit for where you are right now.
Sound familiar?
You started teaching
because you love
the game.
But somewhere between building lesson plans, figuring out pricing, posting on Instagram, and actually running your classes, it started to feel like a lot.
You needed a clear path, real support, and a community that gets it. That's exactly why these resources exist.
Posting and hoping, but not sure it's working
Students love your classes but word of mouth only goes so far
You want systems, not just more ideas
You're doing this mostly alone and it's exhausting
Start with the free guides.
New to teaching? Start with How to Teach American Mahjong: A First-Class Playbook for a practical lesson structure. If you’re deciding whether to teach professionally, read How to Become an American Mahjong Teacher for an honest look at certification, pricing, and the three common paths.

Teacher Tools
Not everything here is a program.
Some of what I make is just a tool. Pick it up, use it, and join something later if you ever want to.
New · Your first class
Teach Your First Class
One complete beginner class, planned minute by minute and played through to a real finished game. The 46-page guide with the exact words to say, a one-page map to teach from, the visuals you point at in the room, a student pack that goes home with them, and an editable slide deck. Written for the 2026 NMJL card.
One four-student class at the rates the guide teaches you to charge pays for it three times over.
New · Bookkeeping
The Mahjong Teacher's Books
Expenses, income, and mileage in one Google Sheet, with categories written for a teaching business instead of a generic one. Tile sets, clubhouse rental, printing, a co-teacher's cut. At tax time it prints a single page you hand to whoever does your return.
I am a CPA, which is the only reason I had any business building this.
