Teaching Philosophy: "As an educator, my role is to open doors for students – to inspire creativity, to allow for expression, and to engage the minds of all students. I am committed to creating a welcoming environment for students of all ages/races/religions/identities, where they are not afraid to share ideas or make mistakes. I believe that to be the most effective educator I can be, I must care about students and their welfare and show each student that I am invested in them as an individual. It is essential that I demonstrate enthusiasm and passion for the subjects I teach and encourage students to explore, express, discover, and create."

Biography: April Verser is a bassoonist/contrabassoonist and educator, originally from Loveland, CO. She is currently studying for a Doctor of Musical Arts degree in Bassoon Performance at Boston University under primary teachers Nancy Goeres and Margaret Phillips. She received her Masters in Bassoon Performance from Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, PA in 2013, where she also studied with Nancy Goeres. In 2011, she received a Bachelor of Music degree in Music Education (Instrumental) and Bassoon Performance along with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Mathematics with a German minor from Lawrence University in Appleton WI. At Lawrence, she studied bassoon with Monte Perkins and piano with Lee Tomboulian, and she holds a WI teaching certificate.

As an educator, April has taught private lessons in bassoon, clarinet, and piano since 2010. She also currently holds a teaching position at Boston University, teaching aural music theory to undergraduates.

April is a regularly performing freelance bassoonist in the greater Boston area. Prior to moving to Boston, April lived and regularly freelanced in the Chicago area. April has held positions with the Billings Symphony Orchestra and Chorale, the Beloit-Janesville Symphony, the Rockford Wind Quintet, and the Fox Valley Symphony Orchestra, among other groups.

April is also the Camp Director of MathPath, a summer program for exceptionally mathematically gifted students age 11-14, and a competitive mathematics contest problem-writer, and a competitive mathematics coach for secondary students. In her spare time, April enjoys baking and doing textile crafts - especially cross stitching.

April has been teaching since 2010 and joined Note-worthy Experiences in August 2022, where she teaches in person bassoon and piano lessons.
