            if (my.Name[index] == wanted)
            {
                outputLabel.Content = " " + my.Name[index] + " "  + my.Subject[index];

            else
            {
                outputLabel.Content = "Name not found";
            }
        }


    }
}

You are using arrays without initializing them. While you have defined a constructor for your Course class that takes values for the arrays, you are using the default constructor. Try calling your own constructor with arguments like

Course my = new Course(new string[2], new string[2], new string[2]);

Before you can assign a value to an element like my.Name[0] , you have to ensure that my.Name is referencing an allocated array, which means there is memory available for your elements.
