Slipping and Skidding ?

Could someone explain me why slipping and skidding occur? Also why, for example, when a slip occurs during a turn rudder pressure must be applied to the same direction? And what happens during a skid and how do you coordinate the rudder with the ailerons? I’ve read the theory but it looks a little bit confusing though. Thanks in advance
