Don't need lah. Normally you learn to play pay abit of "school fees" and you will master the art liao haha. But beware of beginner luck... I ever know of one beginner who was learning and got the sequence wrong.
She kept discarding tiles before taking new tiles each round and still manage to game.

mahjong is still 70% luck..
Strategy is less important than ability to read cards..
There are many tactics and techniques of course but they just increase your chance that is all.
Charging for tuition fees? Must be joking lah... if you are so good you would make your money on the mahjong table..
And up to a certain level, I don't think mahjong can be taught because some people always have their style of playing..
It is also a psychological game as you need to read body language as well..
There is a saying that "those who teach cannot make it"

SM... it's like in army, u need to train urself up and to know the basic tactics before u go to war.. of course every country has their own tactics and not necessarily u always win every battle but there are certain things still need to know and train up in order to have higher chances to win...
IN my opinion, luck only stands 50%, if u have the right techniques, u can compensate for the lack of luck and there are so many methods to change luck, ur luck and ur opponent's luck...
Maybe u r right... I make money from mj table quite often but i oso lost before ...
There are so many methods to study before u go up to the table ... mayb we discuss further next time ..
the fees is just a simple reward for the time n efforts put in ... i do not think it is unreasonable...
even u need to pay when u learn swimming...

I have learnt from many masters before and none of them ask for money. They will make money from the mahjong table. I just find it so against the "principle of mahjong" to ask for money in return for instructions. If you are so good, win it on the mahjong table.
Anyway, you can teach the tactics + techniques. To master mahjong you will need to practise and practise.. there is no short-cut.
Memory is important. You need to know who (all the three players) discarded what tiles . It can be live and death in certain situations.

wow...even masters come out now...
provided u know them well then they can teach u as a friend of course less probability of collecting fee...
i m not really desperate for the fee but as an appreciation for the time n efforts spent on teaching ..
I think anyone would be generous to give that small small token for learning something ..
You can't possibly go to any chef and ask them to teach u how to cook without paying them right ?
anyway, i'm just asking around...
no sure win at mj table but with the techniques + ways to change luck .. u certainly have a good chance to prevent losing
of course u can not take this as a full time ... it can only be a good hobby..
i m not promoting gambling btw ... but to get more people to enjoy the game....

I will pay to learn if you can teach me ESP like stephen chow... Rub the jiu tong into bai ban hahahaha
I don't know.. if it is a token of appreciation, it will be given willingly by the person involved.
If it is a fee that is being asked upfront.. I just find it "weird" in mahjong.. how much can you ask? Unless as I said you are advertising as a mahjong "coach". If you are good as you said you are, it would be much easier to win money from the table. And if you are really good as a personal coach, people would appreciate and give you a token.. No need to ask..
I just find it cheapskate to ask for a token.. sorry, not an insult. It is just me.. I would never ask and would even reject if token is given to me..

SM, Change your tiles the andy lau style in his majong movie haha. Cover all the tiles and throw one by one. Don't see any updated new tiles until you go through 13 cycles and changed all your tiles.
Janie cannot lah. I not qualified to haha

"If you cannot game, you MUST ensure that the one with least (in terms of doubles) combination of tiles to game. This way you minimize your loss. Sometimes you must FEED this guy to win."
Sm, i agree. But sometimes is suay dao lao sai kind loh.. You nvr put 'cannon' but the one who is lucky will keep 'touch ownself' loh.. some more every round zi mo max 'double' kind.. wahx.. bth.. lolx
den finally someone throw a card that u can game max double, den the one before you 'snatch' to game a 2 'double' card... *faint*
if really wana pay to learn, i would want to learn how to 'Always ZI MO'.

continue to haunt hbh then...
mayi, yeah... shits happen mah...
that's the kick of it all. hahaha... sometimes can be really bery the "tui" if u playing big, but then again, it can also work in ur flavour at times lah.
anyway, the best way to 'gain more experience' is to play and play and play....
the theory on techniques, cheats and all that can help to kickstart the "PT career" abit faster... win/lose more or less...
but still largely depends on Luck.

HBH, ya that's why i don mind paying for that kind of 'skill'.. heh heh..
sm, what do u mean by ppl zi mo, i pay half price? everyone still pays the same mah?
eg.. It's like someone zi mo 5 double, it's $12.80, everyone pays the same. but someone throw out, then it's half price at $6.40 if it's not thrown by me.. no?

mayi,
When soneone is "big" on the table.. few doubles.. your aim should be
a) Game as fast as possible.. if you have good tiles
b) if you have bad tiles.. then find someone that you can feed (preferably the one below u). Feed the guy until fat fat then you go hide.
Let them kill one another..
