Good teachers are crucial for students in order to obtain information. Therefore, there are many discussions what aspects a good teacher has. I assume that a good teacher should set challenging tasks for his or her students, and there are several reasons to support this opinion.

The first is that challenging tasks make students think. Thinking is an essential part of learning because it boosts student's intellect which is plays an important role in nowadays society where only smart people can be successful and competetive in making a career. Therefore, good teachers tend to give tasks that are not easy; instead, they are rather hard.

The second reason why good teachers should give challenging tasks is that students should be incited to ameliorate their knowledge on their own. To illustrate, if a particular student gets a task which he or she aspires to do, he or she will possibly search the internet, go to a library in order to get the required information. This is why good teachers give challenging tasks for their students.

Another reason why giving challenging tasks for your students is a characteristic of a good teacher is that hard tasks improve student's readiness for examinations. For instance, if students usually get hard tasks and hard tests, they are more likely to work hard, and, thus, to succeed during their examinations because thay will have better knowledge. Challenging tasks help students to reach their goals in examinations, and good teachers are aware of that.

To reacpitulate, setting challenging tasks for one's students is an aspect of a good teacher. Challenging tasks increase knowledge and intellect which let students reach success in examinations and future life, respectively. Moreover, challenging tasks helps students to learn how to work individually, which is also very important.
