Getting stuck on Challenge task 1 of 1 for Stage 3 of How to build Wordpress Plugins

My code is attached and I keep getting bummer errors. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

plugin.php 
<?php

/*
  {
    "name": "Username",
    "profile_name": "profile_username",
    "profile_url": "http://myapi.net/profile_username"
    "courses": [
      { "name": "WordPress Plugin Development" },
      { "name": "WordPress Theme Development" },
      { "name": "Introduction to PHP" }
    ]
  }
*/

?>

<ul>
  <?php for( $i = 0; $i < count($my_plugin_profile->courses); $i++ ): ?>

  <li><?php echo $my_plugin_profile -> {'courses'} -> {'name'}[$i] ; ?></li>

  <?php endfor; ?>
</ul>

I haven't done this course myself yet, but just lending an eye...should there be a comma at the end of "profile_url"? and in your for statement, should it be a : or ;?
