Indirect object pronoun placement - Grammar Quiz

One of the answers in this quiz contains "sirviendote" - now I think this is a typo and should be "sirviéndote".
I am only a beginner at Spanish - so could someone confirm whether I am right or wrong please?

Yes, you are correct. The accent should me put there because the pronunciation of this word is not regular (it doesn't go with the rules of stress) so it needs an accent to show that. Otherwise you would pronounce it like sir-vi-en-DO-te which isn't right.
