Why Learn Mahjong in a Group Setting

Learning mahjong in a group has several advantages over trying to teach yourself or playing casually with friends who may not know the rules well.

Instructors and fellow learners can answer questions and correct mistakes on the spot. This feedback speeds up your learning and prevents bad habits.
