Jon J. says, "I had my daughter, a 12 year-old flute player, start taking lessons with Mrs. Wilt and I can't find enough good things to say about her. Since working with Mrs. Wilt, my daughter's playing skills have improved incredibly, and more importantly, it has increased her confidence and love of music. Mrs. Wilt is patient, responds to the needs and wants of her students, challenges them appropriately, helps them find music they love to play, and starts teaching theory right away in digestible bits, which is (in my opinion) an important building block to future success. In summary, my daughter's skill level has moved beyond what is being taught in her band program, and it is all thanks to Mrs. Wilt. If you are looking for a great flute tutor in the Fox Valley area, Mrs. Wilt gets my beaming recommendation." Read more

A flute lesson lasts about 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the student's needs. Beginners often start with shorter lessons to slowly increase their focus and improve their flute-playing skills.

How do I find a flute teacher near me?

Find a flute teacher near you by searching for private instructors here on Lessons. You can also ask for the availability of teachers at local music stores. Flute classes might be available at community colleges too.

Sarah R.
Mrs. Wilt has a very extensive musical background with many different instruments. And she is a very patient, thorough and caring teacher. I would highly recommend her to any parent looking for a music teacher for their young one. That student will get a very full understanding of music theory, and will enjoy playing and practicing an instrument.

Amazing. I have been taking lessons with Mrs. Vargas since the 7th grade and I couldn't imagine taking lessons with anyone else. I am now a sophomore in college and auditioning for a spot in the flute studio at different universities. I have been accepted in my top two school choices and got great comments from the flute professors and I couldn't have done it without my amazing flute teacher! She is kind, patient, talented, and professional. You won't regret taking lessons from her!
