Quel(masculin)/Quelle(féminin) depending of the contexte it can be what or wich or who ex: Who is your favourite singer? = Quel est ton chanteur préféré? What's your favourite colour? = Quelle est ta couleur préférée? Qu'est ce que is what but in a different way. Look at this ex: What are you doing? qu'est-ce que tu fais ? what did this mean? qu'est-ce que ça signifiait

Quel and Quelle both mean "which". Qu'est-ce que is pretty much "what".
