In arrow function this keyword is inherited from the parent. I mean arrow function does not have its own this key word. Instead, you should use function expressions not the arrow functions. That is the reason! I hope I'm understood!😉

Jonalyn Limentang there is a space missing from your print() func. The bit after the colon : console.log(this.name+": "+this.number);
