Dim Poo
To get a nice tone say "dim poo." Make sure the flute is centered at the bottom or your lip. Relax your upper lip. It compares with blowing across a glass bottle to get a sound or cooling soup. The sound of a new flautist is usually very airy or windy. If possible, narrow the air stream. Practice whistling.
