num_courses(dictionary)

My code works when complied on idle. Not sure why am I still getting the error msg though

teachers.py 
# The dictionary will look something like:
# {'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(dictionary):
    num_teachers = len(dictionary)
    return num_teachers

def num_courses(dictionary):
    courses = [] 
    for value in dictionary.values():
    courses += value
    return len(courses)

This code has an indentation error on the 2nd line from the bottom.

That line is part of a loop and should be indented more than the "for" line above it.
