Solution

  • Array columns in a tabular environment must be associated with an alignment qualifier. In your example, you probably used c (center), but you should have used l to have the text in the cells left aligned or r for a right alignment.

    But this is very basic LaTeX use and you should absolutely read a tutorial on LaTeX tables.

    Note that there are many useful packages that extend the tabular functionality and allows to have centered paragraph, to control their vertical alignment, to align digital numbers and so on. Look at this thread in tex.stackexchange.com to have a good overview on existing packages for table formatting.
