Chess Classes

Meet Leung Ho Yan — 2016 Hong Kong Chess Champion and dedicated chess educator with a passion for transforming young minds through the royal game. With championship credentials and years of elite coaching experience at Wah Yan College Kowloon — where I now serve as Honorary Advisor — I bring tournament-tested expertise directly to your child. My students currently attend prestigious institutions including La Salle College and St. Louis School, a testament to results that speak for themselves. World-Class Training Infrastructure My teaching studio features professional-grade ChessBase 14 software and one of Hong Kong's most comprehensive opening and game databases — the same tools used by international masters. Having trained under Grandmaster-level mentors M. Oleksienko and Oleksander Sulypa, I combine European methodological rigor with personalized attention impossible in crowded group classes. The One-on-One Advantage Research consistently shows that two individualized sessions monthly outperform four mass-market lessons. My biweekly structure builds sustainable habits: students receive focused instruction, then apply concepts through guided self-study. This rhythm develops independent thinking while maintaining accountability. Beyond the Board My academic interests span early childhood chess education, chess-assisted therapeutic applications in psychology and philosophy, and advancing chess accessibility across Hong Kong. I'm particularly committed to serving underserved communities including low-income families, ethnic minorities, and people with disabilities. Continuous Support, Measurable Progress Your investment extends far beyond lesson hours. Parents enjoy unlimited WhatsApp consultation, priority notification of competition opportunities, and access to volunteer teaching initiatives. Every student masters professional software for systematic learning, receives customized electronic assignments submitted two days before each session, and benefits from detailed online feedback reviewed and discussed during lessons — maximizing every minute together.
