Hi Janna Satska ,

I believe the error you're encountering is due to how the paragraph tags (<p>) are used in your code, even though the error message mentions the H3 tags. Your H3 tags are actually placed correctly.

The issue occurs because you're wrapping each sentence with its own <p> opening and closing tags. Instead, it would be best to wrap the entire paragraph under each H2 and the H3 heading with a single set of <p> tags.

So, place an opening <p> tag at the start of the paragraph and a closing </p> tag at the end of the paragraph.

When I made this adjustment to your code, it passed validation every time. I hope this helps, and sorry for any confusion!
