The same way you made your right hand good. Use it as much as possible. Practice, practice, practice. Played "21" with some kids the other day and whoever won a game got to make rules for the next game. One winner made the rule, play with one hand in your pocket. If you can do this using only your left hand to dribble and shoot - and do it each practice, while paying attention to using correct form- you will improve. Its better to start in close and get good form before shooting longer shots.

Do the "tap" drill - tap the basketball against the backboard with your left 4-5 times before finally tapping it into the net. Do this drill with both hands - on the right side, do it with your right hand and on the left side, do it with your left hand. Do the left-hand side one extra time each time you do this drill. There are blinders you can use for dribbling practice to block your view of the ball(see your basketball coach) - use them exclusively while you dribble with your left hand. Practice left-handed layups one time more than you do right-handed layups.

If you are serious about learning your left, tape your right hand behind your back for practices. It forces you to learn to dribble with your left only (at first).
Then, after a week or so of only left, untape your hand and start working the right-left crossover.(back and forth).
Best of luck.

do some weight training with your left, make it strong first.
practice A Lot of drible with left, make it comfortable with the ball. and then practice shooting. I'm working on my left hand too, it's hard, but basketball takes a lot of practice.
Hope you can do it.

Good Luck!
