Java Java Objects (Retired) Creating the MVP For Each Loop

I am stuck please help with the code

So back to that ScrabblePlayer. I found that it's not enough to know if they just have a tile of a specific character. We need to know how many they actually have. Can you please add a method called getTileCount that uses the for each loop you just learned to loop through the characters and increment a counter if it matches? Return the count, please, thanks!

ScrabblePlayer.java
public class ScrabblePlayer {
  private String mHand;

  public ScrabblePlayer() {
    mHand = "";
  }

  public String getHand() {
   return mHand;
  }

  public void addTile(char tile) {
    // Adds the tile to the hand of the player
    mHand += tile;
  }      

  public boolean hasTile(char tile) {
   return mHand.indexOf(tile) > -1;
  }
  public String getTileCount() {
    for(char tile:toCharArray()) {

        tileCount++;
      }

    }
}
