Stuck on create "Praise" method objective, getting double prints when i run it in the console

Not sure what i'm doing wrong, if i should return or print, when i substitute return with print function in console it prints the correct message twice. Error I get is "can not find name in praise method"

first_class.py 
class Student:
    name = "Brad"

    def praise(self):
        return("You're doing great {}!".format(self))

from first_class import Student
me = Student()
Student.praise(me.name)
