Is there a way to use WHERE with INSERT INTO?

Question

I want to use MySQL as some sort of timetable and I already built an SQL Table like this:

+------+--------+---------+-----------+----------+--------+
| TIME | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY | FRIDAY |
+------+--------+---------+-----------+----------+--------+
|    1 | NULL   | NULL    | NULL      | NULL     | NULL   |
|    2 | NULL   | NULL    | NULL      | NULL     | NULL   |
|    3 | NULL   | NULL    | NULL      | NULL     | NULL   |
|    4 | NULL   | NULL    | NULL      | NULL     | NULL   |
|    5 | NULL   | NULL    | NULL      | NULL     | NULL   |
|    6 | NULL   | NULL    | NULL      | NULL     | NULL   |
|    7 | NULL   | NULL    | NULL      | NULL     | NULL   |
|    8 | NULL   | NULL    | NULL      | NULL     | NULL   |
|    9 | NULL   | NULL    | NULL      | NULL     | NULL   |
+------+--------+---------+-----------+----------+--------+

This is what I get when using SELECT. Now I want to insert data in a specific field.

I tried INSERT INTO timetable (MONDAY) WHERE TIME=1 but it didn't work, and after some Google research I got the information that it is not possible to use WHERE in combination with INSERT INTO.

Is there a way to insert data into a specific field or another way of using WHERE?

You can use UPDATE query for updated the selected row(s).

Query:

UPDATE timetable SET monday='classes available' WHERE time=1;

Here I insert sample data 'classes available' when time=1
