Every putt is a straight putt, you just need to know where to aim.
Crouch down behind the putt and figure out where you think you need to aim.
Now track back towards your ball and pick something about 1 foot in front of your ball that is on the same line as you want to start your putt.
Without looking away from this spot approach your ball and line your putter up square to this spot you picked.
At this stage I like to look at the hole (or my target if its not the hole) and take 2-3 practice swings while looking at the hole, this gives me my feel.
I now move into the ball, pick another spot between my ball and the putter and make my swing all the time focusing on this spot.
Keep looking until you hear the ball drop (or someone lets you know it didnt go in!)
