Linda Chan is a Hong Kong born pianist. Her musical journey began with a toy wooden piano given to her from her father when she was five. In 2002, she won the first prize in Liu Shih Kun Piano Competition Advanced Group. During her studies in the University of Hong Kong, she was included in the Dean’s Honour List and was awarded the German Consulate Book Prize and Lufthansa Scholarship.

After graduation, she carried on her studies at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. At the same time, she became a full time piano tutor at the then renowned Liu Shih Kun Piano and Arts Centre. Her students were aged between three and fifty. They won various prizes in competitions and achieved good results in exams held by the ABRSM.
