Perhaps just me, but this "push left/right" advice messed up my understanding of counter-steer when I was learning and I found myself being unable to turn effectively. I would push the handlebars down or slightly forward and be able to turn but innefectivly.
Far better in my opinion is advice to simply "turn left briefly to go right". As in actually turn the wheel left, then let the bike balance by going right. Moto control explains it effectively: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZLqyN5yy6I8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZLqyN5yy6I8
