Need Help with Java For Loop

Question

Hello, the program does not allow me the return an integer during the method. How can I fix this problem? 
'''
public class ScrabblePlayer {
  private String mHand;;
  public ScrabblePlayer() {
    mHand = "";
  }
  public String getHand() {
   return mHand;
  }
  public void addTile(char tile) {
    // Adds the tile to the hand of the player
    mHand += tile;
  }
  public boolean hasTile(char tile) {
   return mHand.indexOf(tile) > -1;
  }
  public String getTileCount(char tile){
    int myCount=0;
      for (char myTile:mHand.toCharArray()){
        if (myTile==tile){
      myCount++;
        }
      }
    return myCount;
  }     
}

You are not allowed to return an integer because you have the return type of the method set as String, change it to int and your code should work.
