The video tutorial explains the concept of first conditionals in English, which are used to discuss real and possible future situations. It covers the structure of first conditional sentences, which typically use 'if', 'when', or 'unless' followed by a present simple clause and a future simple clause. The video also discusses the use of modal verbs like 'might', 'could', 'may', 'should', and 'can' to express different levels of certainty. Examples are provided to illustrate these concepts, and viewers are encouraged to practice writing their own first conditional sentences. The tutorial concludes with a prompt to explore additional resources on other types of conditionals.
