Treehouse TeacherHi there, Chaquayla Halmon! Looks like you're doing pretty well so far. So this class has three methods that are all "attached" to the Student. You're trying to pass self into a praise function, but the praise function already has access to the Student. The student is the instance of Student that it's referring to.
Instead of:
praise(self)
You're looking for:
self.praise()
Hope this helps!
