Didn't find correct number of <li>s

Hi guys, For the life of me I can't finish this challenge. Can someone point me to the right direction?

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">
      {% for courses in teachers %} 
      <li>{{ teacher.courses }}</li>
      {% endfor %}
    </ul>
  </li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>

{{ teacher.courses }} would print out the list of courses. You want to loop through a teacher's courses. Start with {% for course in teacher['courses'] %}.
