Mahj Life Instructor Guild > Teaching FACE-TO-FACE and ONLINE, nationwide!

With over 25 years of public school teaching experience, Robin brings a deep understanding of how people learn best to the game of mah jongg. Her background in differentiated and personalized instruction allows her to adapt lessons to a wide range of learning styles and needs. Throughout her career, she has taught in settings as small as specialized classes for students with unique challenges and as large as auditoriums of more than 100 learners.

Robin earned her bachelor’s degree in education from Kennesaw State University and a master’s degree from the University of North Georgia. In 2011, she was honored as her school’s Teacher of the Year and contributed to shaping county-wide learning goals and standards.

As a mah jongg instructor, Robin wants students to find both joy and challenge—whether their goals are social, recreational, or competitive. Her teaching emphasizes logical, sequential learning that builds a strong foundation step by step, with special focus on National Mah Jongg League rules so students can play confidently with any group.

For Robin, teaching mah jongg is about more than the game—it’s about creating community, fostering shared experiences, and building lasting connections that continue long after the last tile is played.
