How do I get rid of the single quotes inside each list?

# The dictionary will be something like:
dict= {'Jason Seifer': ['Ruby Foundations', 'Ruby on Rails Forms', 'Technology Foundations'],
  'Kenneth Love': ['Python Basics', 'Python Collections']}
#
# Often, it's a good idea to hold onto a max_count variable.
# Update it when you find a teacher with more classes than
# the current count. Better hold onto the teacher name somewhere
# too!
#
# Your code goes below here.
def most_classes(teacher_dict):
    teacher_list = []
    class_list = []
    for teacher in teacher_dict:

        class_count = len(teacher_dict[teacher])
        teacher_list.append(teacher)
        class_list.append(class_count)
    location = class_list.index(max(class_list))
    print(location)
    return(teacher_list[location])

most_classes(dict)


def num_teachers(teacher_dict):
    print(len(teacher_dict))
    return len(teacher_dict)

num_teachers(dict)

def stats(teacher_dict):
    stringList = []
    for teacher in teacher_dict:
        num= len(teacher_dict[teacher])
        dict_temp= {'name':teacher, 'number of classes':num}
        temp =['']
        temp[0] = "{name}, {number of classes}".format(**dict_temp)
        stringList.append(temp)
    print(stringList)
    return(stringList)

stats(dict)
