It looks like it’s been drying out or getting burnt? I don’t know your watering schedule for it or where it’s located in your home, but make sure it’s not getting too much direct sunlight. Water when the soil begins to feel dry/the top 1 inch or so of soil is dry. If you can increase the humidity around the plant that also may help. Good luck!

Omg I had it next to my big lamp, I didn’t think about that at all, I just moved it. Thank you so much!!

Yes to what above comment said. I have one of those and its happy in the shade (indirect ambient light) and likes to stay moist (not soaking) like all the time. Maybe decrease days between watering. I wouldn’t let soil ever completely dry out.  
You can also trim off the dry parts of leaves before changing watering just to keep an eye on if new watering is working, so you know old dry parts are gone.
