Hi Jose,

If you have a look at the "Preview" for the errors given: 

Frog.cs(15,5): error CS1519: Unexpected symbol `)' in class, struct, or interface member declaration
Frog.cs(15,246): error CS1525: Unexpected symbol `end-of-file'
Frog.cs(16,1): error CS1514: Unexpected symbol `end-of-file', expecting `.' or `{'
Compilation failed: 3 error(s), 0 warnings

From this, it's just a matter of some troubleshooting. The first error gives it away, and once fixed it will also fix the remaining two errors, so really, it's just one small syntax typo.
You have a closing parenthesis for the Class instead of a closing curly brace. Once you correct that, the challenge passes with flying colors.

Keep Coding! :) :dizzy:
