console.printf("my name is %s", firstName);

I guess the "%s" is probably situated at the end of the sentence? "my name is < firstname >"

You misspelled "readLine" (camel-case). It should be:

String firstName= console.readLine( "What's your name? " );

By the way, you posted your question in the wrong section.
