Is this correct?

how do I pass this part, am I doing it mostly correct?

first_class.py 
import random


class Student:
    name = "Roniel Flores"

    def praise(self)
        return bool(random.randint(0, 1))
        print("You're doing a great job, Jacinta")

Hi Roniel, here are some hints.

# I need you to add a method name praise. 
def praise(self) # this is missing a :
        # name was here?
        return bool(random.randint(0, 1)) <-- this doesn't belong here, it's not part of the challenge
        print("You're doing a great job, Jacinta") <-- which includes the name attribute.
# be sure to return not print
# the name attribute seems to be missing

class Student: name = "Roniel Flores" praise (self): print("You're doing a great job, Jacinta")

Hi Roniel, To return something instead of printing it use:

return "You're doing a great job, Jacinta"
