My children is formal and correct whereas my kids is informal.

My children 
My kids
 Which one is correct  and why ?

You may use both but I would suggest to use my children when you speak in professional terms or formal situations but you may use my kids if it's none formal situation. 

Both are useable, but “my children” is more formal. If you’d like the informal approach, you say “my kids”. Most people say “my kids”. 

My children is used in a formal  way,my kids is informal.

'My children' is correct, and can be used both as a formal or an informal expression. 'My kids' is colloquial and often used in an informal way.

"My kids " is informal and "my children " is formal

'My children' is correct, because it is formal while ' my kids' is informal.

My children is proper English, the offspring from a human being, a kid is the baby of a goat,  but for some reasons, we use the word kids, I guess it is just passed down from generation to generation.

My teaching styles vary: they include a structural method, demonstration, group facilitation, and hybrid or blended method depending on the needs and the level of the students at a given time period. I teach students who are new to the language, the basics which include, grammar, sentence construction, and vocabulary in the form of written and spoken English. For the more mature learners who already know the basics, I teach styles of writing, comprehension, and composition.
