Testimonials

I had the pleasure of doing group lessons with Catherine on 3 different occasions. Twice, at a friend’s home and once at a venue. I thoroughly enjoy her patience, wit, and knowledgeable teaching. I would recommend her to anyone wanting to learn mahjong and have fun!

We LOVE hosting Mahjong events with Catherine from Mah Jong Mah Lady. She makes learning Mahjong fun, easy, and welcoming for everyone. Every event brings such a great vibe into the store—new faces, lots of laughs, and the best kind of energy.

Her classes have been an amazing way to introduce new customers to our boutique and have been a wonderful boost for in-store shopping and sales.

So grateful for this partnership and looking forward to many more events!

Catherine had a gift of turning a complex game into something understandable and so fun! She is good at breaking down the basics, but also has great strategy for those with more experience. She is endlessly patient and so sweet!

We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Catherine, aka Mah Jong Mah Lady, as our personal teacher. From the very beginning, she was great and very responsive in communication, which made scheduling and prep super easy.

Catherine’s approach to teaching was outstanding—she introduced the game in a clear, fun way that helped us make sense of the game and put us at ease. We loved her style and that she quickly got us playing theactual game and learning by doing, coaching us through the game in real time with patience and encouragement. That hands-on style helped us feel that we could do it on our own!

Our group enjoyed learning with Catherine so much that we invited her back for a follow-up strategy session after we’d had some time to get comfortable with the basics. That session was extremely helpful and took our understanding and confidence to the next level. I’ve seen other training approaches, and I can say with confidence that I can’t recommend Catherine more highly for anyone looking to learn or improve their Mah Jong game.

Learning Mahjong with Catherine has been an absolute joy. Her background in Human Resources truly sets her apart as a teacher. She’s intuitive about how people learn and explains strategies clearly, adapting her teaching style to different levels. I can’t recommend Catherine highly enough to anyone looking to learn and better understand Mahjong!

- Lauren

Catherine is a fabulous Mahjong teacher! Not only does she give clear and easy to follow directions on the rules and game play, she is fun, personable and patient. She makes sure that rules are understood and provides gentle guidance when you go wrong! She cares most that you leave the lesson with a love of the game and the confidence to play independently. I am grateful to have a new skill that will provide me with many years of future entertainment.

- Erin

With her background in corporate training and her obvious love of the game, Catherine is the ideal mahjong instructor. She is organized, detailed, thorough, and enthusiastic. I’m so thankful I learned how to play from her!

- Holly

We’ve had Catherine in our bookstore several times now teaching Mah Jong lessons. Catherine is the best teacher and brings so much fun to our store. It is always entertaining and lively and her teaching is easy for anyone to understand.

Having her teach Mah Jong in our store has brought us new customers and sales. We love having her come and look forward to it each month!

Catherine’s enthusiasm and knowledge of Mah Jong make learning from her a pleasure! We started playing in our first session, and she was able to make the complex game approachable from the start.

- Amber

I loved my Mah Jong lesson with Catherine. She explains the game in a way that is easy to understand and makes learning fun rather than overwhelming. Her class gave me the confidence to play on my own and really enjoy the game. If you’re thinking about learning Mah Jong, Mahjong Mahlady’s 101 is a fantastic way to start this new hobby.

- Lisa

My friends and I hired Catherine to teach us her 101 class for a fun girls night. We had such a lovely time. Catherine is so knowledgeable, patient and friendly! We loved our experience so much we scheduled a second lesson. I definitely recommend Catherine to help introduce you to this fun game!!

- Stacey

Has started a great new hobby for me!

- Dannielle

My friends and I took Mahjong 101 and Mahjong 102 classes with Catherine. She is a great teacher! She took an intimidating game and made it easy to understand. We now have regular mahjong nights and have a great time connecting and having fun! I highly recommend taking both courses with Catherine!

-Natalie H

I have to admit, I was very intimidated at the thought of learning Mah-jong, but Catherine made it so fun! I knew nothing and after only a few lessons, I felt comfortable to play on my own! This is such a fun game and I highly recommend Catherine as a teacher!
