Why am I so bad at sharpening one side of my knife

Hi guys. I'm fairly new to whetstones and every single knife I own ends up with a really big bevel on one side and scratches. And then the other side seems (for my standards at least) perfectly done. I try to be so delicate on the side which scratches and has a big bevel. Fyi I'm right handed but find the side I'm sharpening when pulling the knife towards me much easier. The push side is the one which is messy. Any advice on how to get better?
