Add the lookups method to your TopicListFilter. What am I getting wrong

Add the lookups method to your TopicListFilter. Remember that this method takes self, request, and model_admin as arguments, and that you need to return a tuple of tuples. need help please.

courses/admin.py 
from django.contrib import admin

from . import models

class TextInline(admin.StackedInline):
    model = models.Text

class QuizInline(admin.StackedInline):
    model = models.Quiz

class AnswerInline(admin.StackedInline):
    model = models.Answer

class TopicListFilter(admin.SimpleListFilter):
    title = 'topic'
    parameter_name = 'topic'

    def lookups(self, request, model_admin):
        return (('Python'),('Ruby')('Java'))

class CourseAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    inlines = [TextInline, QuizInline]

    list_filter = ['created_at', 'is_live']

admin.site.register(models.Course, CourseAdmin)
