Verb Tenses

I found this conjugation chart online (for regular verbs). Though it has 3 different sections and I'm not really sure what to make of it. The only one that I recognize my Spanish teacher tackled are the indicative tenses. Other than that, I can't quite grasp between los tiempos del indicativo, el condicional, and tiempos del subjuntivo.

Don't let the vocabulary get in your way. Indicative is simple present tense. Condicitional is I would do something , you would do something (it's just the would word in English). Subjuctive expressed
unsurety as in the phrase "if I were you" (were is subjunctive)
