Narrative:

Student was sent on his 4th solo to go to the north practice area and to do landings at ZZZ. About an hour into my student's flight he calls me and states that he thought the brakes were locked up after landing and he was still on the runway. He then got out of the aircraft with the engine still running to check the brakes out to see if he could fix it. After getting out of the aircraft he was struck by the propeller on his hand. He had been instructed to never get near a moving propeller and to never get out of an aircraft that is running. After being struck he then got back into the aircraft and was able to taxi the aircraft to an FBO and walked in by himself and was able to procure assistance from the staff inside then proceeded to the hospital.
