Go From Frozen to Table-Ready in 7 Days, Guaranteed
If you've ever stared at your rack while everyone waits, dreaded the Charleston, or passed the one tile you needed… welcome. Here you don't just watch: you practice 230 real decisions, and every answer tells you why.
Your mentor: Ellie Rosenberg, 39 years at the American Mah Jongg table
Why The Mentor Exists
You are not the problem. Sound familiar? 👇
Your mind goes blank
Everyone's waiting. You stare at your rack, then the card, then your rack again.
The Charleston feels like taxes
Right, across, left, and you're never sure what to give away.
Jokers and calls
When can you use one? When can you call a tile? When do you let it go?
The card is overwhelming
Dozens of hands, tiny print, and a new card every April.
Videos don't make you practice
You nod along to a video, then freeze at the real table.
Fear of slowing the group
You don't want to be the one everyone waits for.
You're not alone. The card is confusing, the rules are scattered, and nobody lets you practice with someone telling you why. Until now. 👇
Your Transformation Awaits
From "please don't let it be my turn" to "I know exactly what to do"
✕Before
- Staring at the card, confused
- Guessing which hand to go for
- Dreading the Charleston
- Passing the tile you needed
- Hoping nobody notices you're lost
✓After
- Reading your rack before the card
- Picking two hands in under 30 seconds
- Passing in the Charleston with a plan
- Knowing when to call and when to wait
- Walking into any group and holding your own
And you can see it happen: the same test on Day 1 and Day 7, and your score goes up. 👇

Don't Take Our Word For It

✕This is NOT for you if…
- You already win most of your games
- You'd rather learn from YouTube rabbit holes
- You don't play American Mah Jongg
- You're looking for a free option (this isn't it)
✓This IS for you if…
- You know the rules but freeze at the table
- You want to practice between game nights
- You want to see your progress, not guess it
- You're ready to invest less than a dinner out

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know before getting started
?Is this good for complete beginners?
Yes. Lesson 1 starts from the tiles and how a turn works, and the Trainer starts easy and gets harder as your score goes up.
?I've played for years. Will I still learn something?
Most players who've played for years still freeze on the Charleston or commit to a hand too late. The harder Trainer decisions (switching hands, defense, when to let a tile go) are made for you.
?How is this different from free YouTube videos?
Videos show you. The Trainer makes you decide, 230 times, and tells you right away why. That's what makes you faster at the real table.
?Is this for American Mah Jongg?
Yes: American Mah Jongg with the yearly National Mah Jongg League card, the Charleston, jokers and flowers. It's not for Chinese, Hong Kong or Riichi mahjong.
?Do I have to install an app?
No. The Trainer opens in your browser on phone, tablet or computer. The guides are PDFs you can print or read on screen.
?What happens when the 2027 card comes out?
You get the 2027 Card Map, a short video on what changed and new Trainer decisions within 72 hours of the release. Free for everyone who joins during the launch.
?How long do I have access?
Forever. One payment, no subscription, and updates are included.
?Can I print the materials?
Yes, everything prints on a home printer in large print, US Letter and A4.
?What if it's not for me?
Use it for 30 days. If your score doesn't go up or it's not for you, write to themahjongmentor@outlook.com between day 30 and day 60 and you get a full refund.
