Help with Illegal expression error

Why am I getting a Illegal expression error I don't think anything is wrong with my code.

TeachersExample.java
public class TeachersExample {

  public String[] getTeachersInArrayLongForm() {
    String[] teachers = new String[3];
    teachers[0] = "Jay";
    teachers[1] = "Dave";
    teachers[2] = "James";
    return teachers;
  }

  public String[] getTeachersAsArrayLiteral() {
    // TODO: Replace null with an array literal that matches the long form above
    String[] teachers = {"Jay", "Dave", "James"};
    return teachers;
  }

}
