"As a tailwheel has a tendency to turn left,..."

Er - No!!!

The tendency depends on which way the engine turns! Nothing to do with a tailwheel, tricycle or otherwise.

If you fly something with an engine which runs the other way - and some do - the yaw tendency will be opposite, regardless of undercarriage configuration.
