Hi Rayniery,
Good question!
It depends on what we want to use them for.
May:
May can be used for permission
Example: May I go to the bathroom?
It can also be used to talk about something in the future that is not certain.
Example: It may rain later. You should bring your umbrella just in case.
Might:
Might can also be used to talk about the future.
Example: I might go to the party tonight. Or I might go to the cinema.
Could:
Could is used for conditionals when we're talking about ability.
Example: If I had more money, I could buy a new car!
It's also used to make polite requests.
Example: Could you open the window please?
These are just some examples but I hope that makes it a little clearer :)
