    In his last letter to Hardy, Ramanujan gave a list of 17 functions which he called ``mock theta functions''. In his lost notebook [\textit{G. E. Andrews} and \textit{B. C. Berndt}, Ramanujan's lost notebook. Cham: Springer (2018; Zbl 1416.11001)] identities for mock theta functions of the sixth and tenth orders were recorded. The paper is provided a unified approach to find Appell-Lerch series, false Appell-Lerch series and Hecke-type series. The mock theta functions of order 2, of order 3, of order 5, of order 6 and of order 8 are examined detailly. The paper is dedicated to Professor Bruce Berndt on the occasion of his 80th birthday.
