Can someone point out what I am doing wrong here? I am a bit stumped. Thanks.
class Student:
name = "David"
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(self)
elif grade <= 50
return self.ressurance(self)

- when calling methods, "self" should not be passed explicitly (the system adds it for you)
- the "elif" line should end with a colon
- the last line has "ressurance" instead of "reassurance"
Also, it's not necessary to test the opposite of the "if" condition, a plain "else" would do.
