Way back in the old days before fancy TV video effects, The weatherman stood behind a glass map and wrote the local temperatures for the region in reverse with both hands to appear correct to the viewers.
I had a calculus teacher that could face the class holding the book in her left hand, twist her right hand around and scribble on the blackboard faster than we could copy (even if you could see around or through her), and shaking her head up and down while explaining, and asking, “You do understand, don’t you?” If nobody said no, then she would replace the chalk with the eraser in her right hand, and erase what she had just done, and we still hadn’t been able to copy it down. The other instructors would move from left to right among along the three blackboards, making note taking much easier.

Writing backwards with your non-dominant hand is actually not too hard. Try it and see.
