Practice. If you are doing it without any instruction go to a test centre and watch a couple being done. Go on the DSA web site and see what in involved in the test. Practice.

i had some training for it today. 15 quid an hour. i'm doing it on an RS125 though, so it's a bit tricky. the swerve is easily done, but i've been on the road for a while.

the thing i struggled with was pushing the bike doing a Uturn Embarassed

also struggled with the figure of 8 but got the hang of it. going to do some extra practice on my own first. i'd reccomend an hour with an instructor though. i did it with my own bike and was only 15quid ph.

you have to push your bike while doing a uturn? while sitting on the bike or standing by the side of it?

You'll have to wheel the bike backwards into the imaginary garage, like so:
