omg!!! i have been playing flute for 6 years and i have never used my tounge for tounging notes. all through elm. school, the guy never said any thing about tounging, just to blow. and in middle school no one corrected me or said ne thing about it. now my high school band director says i am tounging my notes when i dont even use my tounge. i just use my breath. the tounging especially starts when i hit high notes like two line e and up. some one help me

I`m a junior and my middle school teacher never told me i had to tongue my notes and i ended up back at my elementary school teacher getting lessons from him and he told me i had to,but thank fully someone told me before i went to high school and now im one of the top fluitists out there and in one of the top maching bands also(brick memorial high school in brick,nj),but all you need to do is to practice on the notes you cannot tongue.Start from the high e you can do and then go down one note in the chromatic scale and work on one note at a time and before you know it you`ll be able to do every one of the notes.That`s what I did and now I`m one of the good flute players out there.Keep it up and you`ll do excellent
