Easy Go problem
It’s easy to think that this shape is already alive, but look more closely. This sort of situation occurs very often in real games.

Intermediate Go problem
At some stage, if you want to get stronger at Go, you need to seek out the best possible moves instead of just accepting life.

Hard Go problem
This sort of shape can be confusing in real games. There appear to be several vital points, so watch out for counterfeit tesuji. As always, the only way to know for sure is to read.
