Nice job! Your code does meet the (written) specifications of the challenge. The "gotcha" that is keeping your code from passing the automated grader is the __init__ method you added. The grader only wanted you to write the feedback() method.

YOUR answer does reflect a good programming practice of defining a meaningful __init__ method.

The automated Challenge grader is not expecting the REQUIRED "name" parameter in your __init__ method and fails its unit test.

You CAN make your __init__ method pass if you include a default parameter value for name. See below.

Again, nice job! Keep up the good work with your Python studies.

class Student:
    # change your __init__ method
    def __init__(self, name="Your Name"):
        self.name = name

    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 grade > 50:
            return self.praise()
        return self.reassurance()
