Can anyone help me out? New- comer in need here! Please!

I don't understand the error messages I'm getting unfortunately :(

months.swift 
let months = [1, 2, 3]
for item in months {
    if item == 1{
    println( "January")} 
    else if item == 2{ 
    println ("February") 
    else if item == 3{ 
    println ("March") 
    }

You haven't closed you } after item == 2. That's causing one issue!

Same after item == 3. Although that could be said to be closing the for loop rather than the test against 3.

Have a look at this:

let months = [1, 2, 3]

for item in months {
    if item == 1 {
        println( "January")
    } else if item == 2 {
        println ("February")
    } else if item == 3 {
        println ("March")
    }
}

That should work fine.

Steve.
