Greetings Sam.
This is Mr. Hodgson and I signed on as one of your virtual mentors.
I am so glad to hear that you are about to study the brain. That is such an interesting topic. It’s amazing to think how much work our brain does for us and how much we need it for everything — from tying a shoe to playing a musical instrument to reading a book to writing a blog post.
I hope to learn about the brain from your work and your blog.
You know, Sam, I was just reading this interesting article in which the writer was thinking about how our brain is designed for math and numbers, even though so many people think they are no good at math. But I guess our brain may be wired for figuring out problems, equations and finding solutions. We just don’t understand how to tap into that strength of our brain.
Good luck with your research.
Sincerely,

Mr. Hodgson
