It may be from either overwatering or sitting in standing water (like in a tray) after you’ve watered.

Let it dry out a bit and cut the brown parts off if they’re really bad. Then make sure it has good drainage before you water it again.

You may also need to pull it out of its pot, and check the roots to make sure they’re not soggy.
