I don't understand what the question is. I mean this question want me the method like "validateGuess()" method on last video or like "promptForGuess()" method.
public class TeacherAssistant {
public static String validatedFieldName(String fieldName) {
boolean bol1 = fieldName.charAt(0) != 'm';
if (bol1) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("You are wrong, because you do not follow the rule for fieldName");
}
boolean bol2 = Character.isLowerCase(fieldName.charAt(1));
if(bol2){
throw new IllegalArgumentException("You are wrong, because you do not follow the rule for fieldName");
}
boolean bol3 = Character.isLetter(fieldName.indexOf(1));
if(!bol3){
throw new IllegalArgumentException("You are wrong, because you do not follow the rule for fieldName");
}
return fieldName;
}
}

All you need to do is check that the two conditions are met (starts with m, followed by a capital letter). If they are true, you return the fieldname, otherwise you throw an error.
// You want to check that the first character is m and the second character is capitalized.
if (fieldName.charAt(0) == 'm' && Character.isUpperCase(fieldName.charAt(1))) {
return fieldName; // If those things are true, return fieldName.
} else {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("Fieldname is Invalid."); // Otherwise, throw an exception.
}
}
