Hey Analyn!

You're super close, but you've actually only created 2 columns ("Name" and "Job") but each of your rows contains 3 columns ("Dave", "Developer", "Teacher") for example. So I'd recommend removing the 'teacher' <td> tags because you don't actually need them!

Hope that helps!

Looks like you had a little "brainfart". You opened a tbody tag after your closing thead tag, but forgot the closing tbody tag.

I think both of you misunderstood my tone.. . By no means did I intend to insinuate that you should know the answer. I only commented to help.
