Don't know what is freaking wrong. I've gone through this many times in another test environment and it works. Any idea?

Don't know what is freaking wrong. I've gone through this many times in another test environment and it works. Any idea?

Getting frustrating as many times it is not my code it is this buggy Treehouse test environment that is touchy.

flask_app.py 
from flask import Flask, render_template

from teachers import TEACHERS

app = Flask(__name__)


@app.route('/')
def index():
    return render_template("teachers.html", teachers=TEACHERS)
templates/teachers.html 
<ul class="teachers">
  {% for teacher in teachers %} 
  <li>
    <h2> {{ teacher["name"] }} </h2>
    <ul class="courses">
      <li> 
        {{ teacher["courses"] }} 
      </li>
    </ul>
  </li> 
  {% endfor %}
</ul>

Nevermind, the system wanted me to iterate course in teacher['courses']...

<ul class="teachers"> {% for teacher in teachers %} <li> <h2> {{ teacher['name'] }}</h2>

<ul class="courses"> {% for course in teacher['courses'] %}
  <li>  {{ course }}</li>
  {% endfor %}
</ul>

</li> {% endfor %} </ul>
