When in normal flight, a helicopter turns just like an airplane. It banks the main lifting body (in this case the rotor) which offsets lift to one direction, initiating the turn, the pilot then adjusts yaw (the tailrotor in this case) to ease the aircraft comfortably through the turn.
When hovering, a helicopter can be turned using yaw-only. The pilot will use the tail-rotor to make the helicopter pivot left or right.
The tail rotor serves two primary purposes.
1. To counter-act the natural tendency for the aircraft to spin in the opposite direction of the main rotor, in accordance with Newton's third law.
2. To give the pilot the ability to manipulate the aircrafts position in a left-right (yaw) axis.
It does this by spinning at a constant speed & altering the pitch (or bite) of the blades on the rotor. Using this method, the rotor can quickly change the amount of its lateral thrust or even reverse it completely.

Why does a helicopter tilt?
Helicopters tilt to offset the direction of their lift in order to initiate movement in that direction. A helicopter pilot can tip the helicopter forward to get a little forward motion, and then tip the helicopter back to stop or even reverse. Likewise, the pilot can make the helicopter "slew" left or right by tilting the helicopter left or right.
