Mahjong enthusiast, evangelist, and certified Oh My Mahjong instructor. Obsessed with spreading the fun of this ancient game. Let’s get your Mahj on!

WHY LEARN WITH ME?

I have been an avid board gamer for decades and a homeschool teacher for almost as long. During my homeschooling years, I became skilled in using the classical method to make learning any subject not only approachable but enjoyable. Learning to play mahjong is not difficult, but it’s infinitely easier when you have someone who understands the classical methodology to guide you. I taught myself and I can teach YOU how to play this ancient, highly addictive tile game!

Learning to play Mahjong is one of my bucket list items and I could not have selected a better person to learn the game from than Melanie! She is not only welcoming, patient, and extremely knowledgeable, but also has a deep love for the game that comes through in her instruction. I would definitely recommend Melanie for first time players and those just wanting to learn more about the game.

I’d wanted to learn Mahjong for a while before my class with Melanie but found it intimidating to begin. Melanie immediately put me at ease and thoroughly explained the game while also creating an encouraging and welcoming environment for beginners. Plus I had a blast with my friends! I would highly recommend Melanie’s Mahjong 101 class to anyone interested in learning!

When I played the first time with Melanie, her enthusiasm over teaching someone that kept wanting to integrate other games with Mahjong did not waver. She explains well and as things present themselves in the game, she uses them as a teaching opportunity. I highly recommend getting Melanie to introduce you to the fun and fellowship of Mahjong.

Mahjong is a challenging game of skill and chance. Melanie meets all the challenges of teaching you how to play. She is very knowledgeable in both American and Chinese Mahjong. She makes it fun and she is very patient with all of her students. I highly recommend her as a teacher and guide to help you learn this addictive game.

I had never played Mahjong before being introduced to it by Melanie in Spring of 2024 and I am so thankful she encouraged me to start learning. I have known Melanie for over 3 years and her passion for people and love of teaching has always shined,  but her love of Mahjong takes her outstanding teaching ability to a whole new level! She is patient and thorough and makes the game so easy to understand! She is a true expert in the world of Mahjong. No need to feel self conscious if new to learning Mahjong: Melanie and her passion for the game will make you feel like a “pro” and a lover of the game in no time!
