David Ogbu

Student, Teacher, and Musician in Russia

My name is Ogbu David Inalegwu, the third of six children in the Ogbu family. I hold a Bachelor of Science degree in Mathematics Education (Mathematics/Statistics Education option) with Second Class Honours (Upper Division) from the University of Agriculture, Makurdi, Benue State.

I have extensive teaching experience across multiple educational levels, having taught subjects such as Mathematics, Quantitative Reasoning, Basic Science, Physical and health education (P.H.E), and computer science. In addition to classroom teaching, I served as a form teacher and games master in several institutions, including Global Greats Model School, FeEl JoEl Mi Standard Child Academy, Redeemed Academy Schools, and St. Anthony’s Schools. During my undergraduate studies, I took younger students tutorials, providing guidance and mathematics and statistics classes, and after graduation, I took a couple of students' private lessons.

Beyond academics, I am a talented footballer and have actively played for teams such as Talented Academy, Pioneers Football Club, and Zion Football Academy, where I thrived both individually and as part of a team. In 2023, I gained professional experience as a frontline intern at Access Bank PLC, Otukpo Branch, where I worked as a customer care representative, developing strong communication and interpersonal skills.

Currently, I am pursuing a master’s degree in Cognitive Sciences and Technologies: From Neuron to Cognition at the National Research University, Higher School of Economics (HSE), Moscow.

I am deeply interested in building lives, providing solutions to problems, fostering unity, and simplifying complex situations. I have a strong appreciation for music—primarily gospel music, though I am also inspired by meaningful lyrics across genres. Additionally, I consider myself a good writer, and I plan to further develop this aspect of my life by sharing my thoughts and reflections with a wider audience, not necessarily through books, but through written expression.
