They teach how to see the card, and they put their questions in writing.
Dara Collins and Donna Kassman, the South Florida duo behind Modern Mahjong, run one of the most respected teaching operations in American Mahjong: a large Mahjong Community group on Facebook, the Visual Companion Guide, and courses a player can take on her own schedule. They do not teach tricks, Prim wrote. They teach how to see the card. In Letter 2 she sent readers to their evening at New York's 92nd Street Y, Mah Jongg 2026: Inside the NMJL New Card.
They came back in Letter 25 for a quieter kind of credit. When a question about misnamed tiles had the groups arguing, they wrote to the National Mah Jongg League, put their questions in writing, and said they would publish the League's reply when it came. Prim called that the slower and less shareable answer, and the only one that leaves the whole community better informed.
Written from what the letter said. Read both letters for the whole of it.
