left side is usually the 4 cog shifter and the right being the 7 gears to make the chain tighter on whichever of the 3 cogs your on

Your left hand shifter is usuallly the front cogs, ie where the pedals are, the right shifter is the rear cogs on the back wheel.
bigger cogs on the front and smaller cogs on the rear usually make it harder to pedal, vice versa for easier gears.
