Help please...

Hey, this is my attempt. What is the question asking that I am doing wrong? Thanks a lot!

first_class.py 
class Student:
    name = "You're doing a great job, Jacinta!"
    def praise(self):
        return name

You are so close! The question asked you to put your name in the name varible, so you would not put your message in there. Instead return it with the message and format your name varible. Like this:

class Student: def praise(self): name = "Ismael" return("You're doing a great job {}!".format(self.name))
