Below are videos taken from YouTube that will help with your playing
Here are some flute intro videos;
this is on proper breathing
this next one is on embrochure ( how you shape your mouth)
and another;
improving you apperature;
and this may be the best overall embrochure video iv'e found yet;
THIS is for more advanced embrochure formation;
the "frown" technique is overwhelmingly popular in Europe, and is probably a better technique than the 'closed smile' which is what beginning flutists usually start with here.

And now, to some notes! PLAYING 'D', 'C', AND 'B-FLAT' AND MORE;
NOW WE HAVE A VIDEO ON READING THE LINES AND SPACES OF THE TREBLE CLEF
notice that I said 'reading lines and spaces" NOT "reading notes.
this is because it is the lines and spaces that are named : A,B,C,D,E,F,and G. The notes themselves are actually named only for the amount of time they are held for :
quarter note = 1 beat
half note = 2 beats
whole note = 4 beats
and so on.
IF YOU SAW THE HEAD OF SQUIDWARD ON THE BOTTOM LINE OF THE TREBLE STAFF, YOU WOULD PLAY AN 'E'. I don't know how LONG you would hold it for, but it would be played as 'E' because ANY note symbol on the bottom line of the staff is played as 'E'
quarter note = 1 beat
half note = 2 beats
whole note = 4 beats
and so on.
