Hi there, what the challenge is asking is to create an instance of the class and then print out the name attribute of that instance for example:

class Student:
    name = "Mike"

person = Student() # creates an instance of the Student class
print(person.name) # prints out the name attribute of person

Hope that helps!!

hey that was helpful i got it write would you mind to help here.......................................

Our Student class is coming along nicely!

I'd like to be able to set the name attribute at the same time that I create an instance. Can you add the code for doing that? Remember, you'll need to override the init method.

class Student: name = "felix"

def praise(self):
    return "You inspire me, {}".format(self.name)

def reassurance(self):
    return "Chin up, {}. You'll get it next time!".format(self.name)

def feedback(self, grade):
    if grade > 50:
        return self.praise()
    return self.reassurance()
