 The Oboe BBoard

On my oboe, in the 2nd octave, the F# is sharp and the E is flat, both requiring lipping into tune. The low octave sounds fine to my ear. The person who evaluated the oboe noted the flat E but not the sharp F#. Is there a single fix for both of these? I'm still learning the logic of tone hole modifications and am not about to attempt it myself yet.
What I think I understand: For the flat E, I need to build up the bell side of the tone hole. Correct?
For a sharp F#, it would seem I need to do the opposite, make the tone hole slightly larger on the bell side.
If I don't understand the basics, can someone either educate me or send me to somewhere I can become educated? It seems it should be perfectly logical but that "art" will invariably come into it, especially since it appears the lower octave is in tune enough that I don't have to mess with it via embouchure adjustments.
I'm pleased that a whole lot of what technique I had is coming back. The stamina is going to take longer, but I'm hoping to go play in a little orchestra in the fall.
