Bio

My name is Elaine Gan, and I established Edmonton Piano Teachers, having a passion for educating people in the art of performance piano. Born and raised in Edmonton, Alberta, I have over 30 years of dedicated and enthusiastic piano teaching experience since 1992 for all skill levels of piano. I accept up to a maximum of 25 students per year.

I’m a classically trained piano teacher by world-renowned piano professors, who have studied in leading universities such as the Eastman School of Music in NYC, University of Alberta, Kings University, and Alberta College. I completed the A.R.C.T. Associates Degree in Piano Performance from the Royal Conservatory of Music of Toronto in 1995, and since then I’ve performed in live performances, as well as participated in adjudication classes, while winning numerous competition awards from the Edmonton Kiwanis Music Festival. I’ve performed at the Winspear Centre for Music, the Jubilee Auditorium, Alberta College, Knoppers Hall, and numerous weddings, churches, recitals and masterclasses. I’m a registered member of the Edmonton Registered Music Teachers Association and the Alberta Registered Music Teachers Association (ARMTA).
