Start with a simple knot, that's exactly what it's called! Suitable for everyday use or for schoolchildren, it is tied simply (tested on myself!).
The next knot is Windsor, it is considered a classic, suitable for ties made of light fabric. This knot is optimal for collars with a wide neckline.
Another popular option is the cross, aka Italian, aka double or square. Suitable for any long tie. For such a knot, you should use a woolen or cashmere tie, it looks good on a high collar.
