A new section for every page?? The mind boggles... Nooo!
If your document only has one page so far, go to the end and press
Ctrl+Enter to insert a hard page break temporarily.
Right-click in the header area on page 1 and click Edit Header. The
Header & Footer Tools tab appears on the ribbon. Check the box in the
Options group for Different Odd & Even Pages. Notice that the blue tag
on the header now says "Odd Page Header" -- this is the header for all
right-side pages.
On the ribbon, click the Page Number button, click Top of Page, and
choose one of the items in the gallery that shows a page number on the
right.
Now click the Next Section button (something of a misnomer, because
it will go to the Even Page Header of the same section). Click the
Page Number button, Top of Page, and this time choose a left-side page
number.
Close the header, and delete the temporary page break if you made one.
