Hello everyone, kindly help me on this docstring error

Add a docstring to Treehouse.student. It should say "Gives a pleasant message about the student.".

But am getting this error Bummer: No docstring on the student method.

starter.py 
class Treehouse:
    """Gives a pleasant message about the student."""
    def student(self, name):    
        return '{} is a great Treehouse student!'.format(name)

The challenge wants you to put the docstring in the student method. :) so to do that, put it inside your def student function and you’re good to go!
