Teaching Philosophy

“While notes, rhythms, and theory are obviously important, I appreciate how Lisa pushes beyond the basics to emphasize the importance of musicality and telling a story with music. Lisa interacts so well with my two very different children, guiding them each in a way that suits them best. We all enjoy Lisa’s fun personality and laid-back style, and my kids love the choices they’re given in choosing new pieces and recording their music.”

“Following a few years of flute lessons that never really excited me, I ended up switching to lessons with Dr. Lisa Gilbert. Dr. Gilbert made me enjoy practicing for the first time, and this lead to great improvement from the stand still I was experiencing. She is very flexible when it comes to personal goals and preferences while maintaining high enough standards to encourage growth and skill development. I am now studying flute at the college level and can honestly say I wouldn’t be here without Dr. Gilbert’s help.”
