Can't find the error

The code works on workspace but I get the following message on the challenge:

Bummer: Oh no! You forgot the self argument in your praise method

first_class.py 
class Student:
    name = "Fernando"
    def praise(self):
        print("You're doing a great job, {}!".format(self.name))

You are very close! The method needs to return a value instead of using print.

Post back if you need more help. Good luck!
