You almost had it. The β€˜Hello’ in the return string needed an uppercase β€˜H’ though...

def hello_student(name):
    return "Hello " + name

hello = hello_student("Beks")

def hello_student(name): return "Hello " + name

hello = hello_student("likhitha")

It helps if you remember the space after "Hello " when you return the function. That's what helped me finish this challenge
