How do I get rid of the extra spaces that show up in my preview?

I have been following the training very closely, but for some reason, I will have extra spaces that show up in my preview, in between about and contact and after contact. I don't know how to fix the html so that I can get rid of them.

If you have extra spacing you might have some space in the actual code <span>hello </span> will have 1 space after hello on your website but <span>hello</span> will have 0 space after hello making anything that comes after it directly next to it. look closely on your code and you might find this if not post code on here.
