This is how I heard it described, and it's been super helpful for me to
think of it this way:

Think of "unzipping" the Braille cell through the middle from the bottom to
the top, then pulling each unzipped side out lengthwise. So dot one is the
first key on the left. Dot 2 is the second key on the left. Dot 3 is
the third key on the left. Dot 4 is the first key on the right. And so on.
The middle key is the space key.

I hope that helps!!
