AOTW, you didn't mention the forward or aft movement as well.
For a turn around the nose, it is a move-left, yaw-right, move-forward exercise. Without the forward movement, you will move away in a straight line while rotating about your mast.
Same with a turn around the tail: move-left, yaw-left, move-backwards.
Imagine some person holding onto your stinger and swinging you around in a circle. It helps to choose markers for each quadrant, so you know that if you are lined up with each marker after each 90 degrees, then the instructor must be flying it.
