Hi Sam Issermoyer!

You have the right idea but you're trying to: (a)call your praise function at the bottom, and (b)assign your Student class to a variable. You have only been asked to return a positive message about the student which includes the name attribute. So, if you remove the bottom two lines, your code will pass.

Hope this helps! :)
