I am a left handed crocheter who taught myself to crochet before the internet. I agree with everything everyone else has said. The only time you need to think backward is when making a garment not crocheting the actual stitches. The stitches simply slant the other way when lefties do them than when right handed people do them. I will admit when a difficult pattern doesn't click seeing a leftie crochet a stitch or and advanced pattern is helpful. I use you tube for this. I like the way Mikey from the Crochet Crowd does many of his videos. He does left handed versions of various stitches and patterns.
