I keep getting "Couldn't find Student" error, not sure what that means

first_class.py 
class Student:
    name = "Your Name", grade

    def praise(self):
        return "You inspire me, {}".format(self.name)

    def reassurance(self):
        return "Chin up, {}. You'll get it next time!".format(self.name)

    def feedback(self, grade):

        if self.grade > 50:
            return self.praise
        else: 
            return self.reassurance

I don't know why it's giving you that error, but I think I know what the problem is. It's not asking you to make grade a property of the Student class, it's just saying to make it a parameter of the feedback method.

Once you get past that, you'll discover that there's another error where you're returning methods without calling them.

Thanks Brendan, I think I got it . I should have return Student.praise(self) and Student.reassurance(self).
