Obvisously I am not getting this

So am I not doing this right? Because if I am not then I don't get what I am doing

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <title>Document</title>
</head>
<body>
    <h1 class="profile-header">Student <span>Profile</span></h1>

    <script
    src="jquery-3.2.1.min.js"></script>
    <script src="app.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
app.js 
$('.profile-header').hide();
$('.profile-header').hide().fadeIn(2000).delay(2000);

You almost have it! You don't need to reselect profile-header because you can just chain delay() and fadeIn() after hide(). You'll also want to chain the delay before the fade in because we're wanting to wait two seconds before the fade in.

$('.profile-header').hide().delay(2000).fadeIn();

Good luck!
