I teach flute lessons in Webster Groves, Missouri with an emphasis on joy, discovery, and building community alongside solid technique. With over 20 years’ experience, I have a demonstrated passion for nurturing students’ lifelong learning.

“My daughter has been playing the flute since 5th grade. She asked can she stop playing the flute in middle school because she was no longer interested. In the spring of her 9th grade year she started taking flute lessons with Dr. Gilbert. After her first lesson she had a big smile on her face and I asked how was it. She said, “It was good, I really like her!” Dr. Gilbert’s exuberant and joyful spirit helped my daughter to love playing her flute. Dr. Gilbert allowed her to choose genres of music she was interested in and that changed my daughter’s perspective on playing. I don’t have to make her practice anymore, she does it on her own now.”

My two kids (ages 7 and 9) really enjoy studying piano with Lisa Gilbert. She does an excellent job of tailoring her lessons to appeal to their different personalities and learning styles. And she makes it fun! I’m impressed with how much their skills have developed since they began studying with her.
