One Down, 14 to Go
Posted: April 8, 2025 Filed under: Uncategorized 1 CommentIt was opening night on New Card classes. It’s always good to play to a home town crowd at my own church even. He had a big turn out. Thanks to my friend Jan for making the door and taking notes on mistakes on a couple slides so I could fix them.
My friend Jeanne did the yeoman’s work of bringing my Mom and helping her read the card. I think her eyes are at the point that I need to get her a giant card. She hung in there as long as she could.

There were very attentive learners and good questions. One of my favorite comments came from a text after the class. “I always feel smarter when I leave your class.”
That is exactly what I want for all my students. I don’t want to show you things, I want you to learn how to see things for yourself. Teaching you how to think is my goal.
My favorite thing is to tell everyone something and watch the lightbulbs go off as they are just getting a new concept. There are a few of those ah ha moments in this class this year.
The best part about Mah Jongg, expanding and using your brain in new and different ways. You should do it for your whole life.
Thanks so much,Dana. 7 of my weekly group were there tonight and now they understand why the gals who learned from you love you so much. Tonight’s class was so good and we all really loved how you paired hands and the Charleston decision tree. That’s where we all struggle. Some of them want to take your beyond beginner class. I do too but those dates, will be visiting granddaughter in Washington state. Will keep up with you to find another date.
Mainly want to thank you for an excellent class. Kim Craig
