2$\begingroup$ You're using Blender 2.79 (or previous version) with "Blender Render" engine. Try to change the rendering engine to "Cycles". You will usually find that in a combo box in the top bar where you now have "Blender render" chosen. $\endgroup$ – lemon Oct 16 '19 at 9:49

As @Lemon said,
change your RenderEngine to Cycles and in the MaterialTab tick "use nodes". Now you have the same menu as in the YouTubeTutorials.
