Remember, "could" is used in two ways in English:
1) "Could" means future possibility.
"Could I borrow your phone?"
"When I finish university, I could become a teacher."
2) "Could" also means past ability.
"Could you play piano when you were a kid?"
"They could sing beautifully when they weren't tired."
It is important to pay attention to the other verbs in the sentence to understand which meaning could has!
