How Do I Insert Tampons?

I just purchased some tampons and I have attempted six times to insert it. I don't understand what they mean by inserting it towards your back. I dont know what angle to insert it at and how I know whether im inserting it at the right angle. Everytime I put it in I can feel it when I walk, jump, and sit. PLEASE HELP!
