Not sure why this isn't being accepted

I'm not sure why this code isn't being accepted. If I run this code outside of workspaces it comes out correct. I used other examples that others have come up with but I don't understand why this specifically isn't being accepted.

teachers.py
# The dictionary will look something like:
dict1 = {'Andrew Chalkley': ['jQuery Basics', 'Node.js Basics'], 'Kenneth Love': ['Python Basics', 'Python Collections']}

# Each key will be a Teacher and the value will be a list of courses.
#
# Your code goes below here.

def num_teachers(dict1):
    return len(dict1)

def num_courses(dict1):
    count = 0
    for item in dict1.values():
        for value in item:
            count += 1
    return count

def courses(dict1):
    list1 = []
    for item in dict1.values():
        for value in item:
            list1.append(value)
    return list1

def most_courses(dict1):
    count = 0
    teacher = ""
    for key, value in dict1.items():
        if len(value) > count:
            count = len(value)
            teacher = key
    return teacher

def stats(dict1):
    list1 = []
    count = 0
    for key, value in dict1.items():
        count = len(value)
        list1.append([key, count])
    return list1

there is nothing wrong in your code. Try it again

This happens a lot to me too. All you need to do is copy the code that you have written, then refresh the page. If that does not work then I would restart the computer and check the internet connection. Hope that helps. :)
