Live Online Mahjong Classes or Mahjong Academy?
Both let you learn Mahjong online, but the learning experience is different.
Live Online Mahjong Classes are scheduled classes taught in real time by an instructor on Zoom. You’ll learn alongside other students and can ask questions as you go.
Mahjong Academy is self-paced. You can work through online Mahjong lessons and practice on your own schedule.
Many students can use both: start with a live class for instructor guidance, then continue practicing and learning with Mahjong Academy.
