getting all sorts of different error, like can't find student or missing the self from praise function.
class Student:
name = "Jacinta"
def praise(self):
if self.name == "Jacinta":
return "You're doing a great job, Jacinta!"
elif self.name == "Michael":
return "I really like your hair today, Michael!"
#student = Student()
#self.name = "Jacinta"
self.praise()

spoiler at the end of this post
I think the main problem with your code is that you are totally misinterpreting the question :) Forget about the names Jacinta and Michael. All you need to do in this challenge is create a method within the Student class called praise. The only argument it takes is self. From there simply return any string and use .format() to insert the instance's name attribute!
class Student:
name = "Nicole"
def praise(self):
return "Good job {}!".format(self.name)
