studentProfile.on is not a function

Hi,

I am following this course exactly and getting the following message: 

studentProfile.on('end', function(ProfileJSON){
                  ^
TypeError: studentProfile.on is not a function

Here is my code

var studentProfile = new Profile(username);

studentProfile.on("end", function(profileJSON) {
    console.log('end');
 });

Hard to tell without the code where you define the Profile function constructor

make sure that you imported the profile.js 

var Profile = require("./profile.js");
