I can't seem to figure out what's wrong with the last part of this code. can someone help me? everything else seems to pass except this last one
# The dictionary will look something like:
# {'Andrew Chalkley': ['jQuery Basics', 'Node.js Basics'],
# 'Kenneth Love': ['Python Basics', 'Python Collections']}
#
# Each key will be a Teacher and the value will be a list of courses.
#
# Your code goes below here.

5,797 PointsYour logic is totally correct, but just a small syntax error. Just change
list_lists.append(single_lists)
to
list_of_lists.append(single_list)
(fix list_of_list and remove the 's' from single_lists)

5,797 PointsI tested your exact code with those two changes I mentioned above, and it should pass all five challenges. Sometime the Challenge "Bummers" are not very useful for determining the actual issue. It will often say "can't find function" if there is a syntax error within the function block. Hope that helps!
