I was discouraged by early releases of SourceTree for Windows because it was buggy. I believe it has improved by now, but I got used to Git Extensions already. It's open source and written in C#, by the way - I keep on planning to fork it and make it more to my liking, just can't find time for that :)
If I recall well, the GitHub app doesn't provide any branch visualization, correct me if I'm wrong.
Git Extensions could be a good choice for teaching, because you get a preview of what commands are being executed by the client. It's not a blackbox that hides what Git does underneath.
