Mary Kay: Hi, Dave. OK, so what's brain dominance?
David Powell: Brain dominance refers to an individual's preference for using one hemisphere of the brain more than the other. The left hemisphere of the brain is rational, analytical, and verbal while the right side is holistic, intuitive and responsive to visual imagery. The difference plays and important role in how individuals learn.
Mary Kay Lofurno: Hmm, so it’s the whole left brain, right brain thing. I get it. Thanks, Dave for that explanation. Have a great afternoon.
David Powell: You too, Mary Kay. Talk with you soon.
