Hey there,

I feel you may have got a bit off track with the instructions. Task two just wants you to add a docstring to the Treehouse class, but you seemed to have added a duplicate Treehouse class and added the docstring to student method inside of the duplicate instead of to the class?

First, you will need to delete the entire duplicate method (you can't have two methods with the same name anyway), and then just add the required docstring for Task 2 to the class (the same way you added Task one's docstring to the method).

Keep Coding! :)
