なら follows a noun or an adjective and たら follows a verb.
ては is close to たら, but is used for something bad or inconvenient. However, てはどうか is a fixed expression and means a suggestion.

よかったら,中文意思是 可以的話、好的話,而よかった是よい(等於いい)的過去式形態,這個過去式也是た形的意思,會使用在たら的句型上(たら的句型有假設、條件句之意),你課本再讀到後面就會懂了。

But たら can be used with adjectives and nouns too:
難しなったら
先生だったら
など
And なら can follow a verb too:
行くなら
I think the different conditionals (たら、ば、なら、と) have different nuances and uses, but it seems pretty complicated and really depends on the situation.
I'd love to understand this better, if someone can explain more!
