The first tag after <body> should say <header> instead of <head>.

<body>
   <header> this is the header </header>
   <section></section>
   <footer></footer>

the <head> tag should not contain website content such as title, images, paragraphs etc. The <head> is a tag that contains your links to other stylesheets and scripts, the course will go into that don't worry! A <header> element should come immediately after the <body> tag and you put all your header content inside there such as a image, h1 and a navigation!

Hope this helps!
