I think this video can help you. With PHPMyAdmin

1. Go to the page of the table you want to modify
2. At the bottom of the page, select you desired column in "After" (at which position you want to add your column in the table)
3. Validate and enter new column information

You can also do it via plain SQL, with a ALTER TABLE query:

ALTER TABLE mytable ADD column3 INT AFTER column1
