Hello nikky28! When I was in college, our teacher gave us an assignment to take a test online which could tell us which part of our brain is more dominant to us. I took it and the result came out and it stated that I am more of left brain dominant. Based on the examples that you gave here, I am now sure that I am more of left brain oriented Although I have some qualities in the right brain oriented.

I'm definitely right brain oriented, though there are times I can be the left brain. Left brain is working mostly with men.

It seems I am left brain oriented.
By the way. I heard that people can develop the potential of both brains by maximizing the use of both hands.
And another saying is someone not good in reading in english can be taught to learn chinese pretty well, as chinese language entail the element of image, while english is based on alphabets.

I'm right brain-dominant. I took an online test and it was the result and actually even if I didn't take up the test, I do feel and think that my right brain is dominant. I'm an artist. Almost all artists are right-brain dominant. I often use my imagination to draw things. I love literature and photography and I suck at math, lol 
Those are just some of my characteristics that made me right-brain dominant.
