Feedback function is not working.

I thought this would be simple but I am not seeing why this code is failing. I created this just as it asks for me. could someone tell me what i am doing wrong?

first_class.py
class Student:
    name = "Jose"
    grade = 89

    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 praise(self.name)
        else:
            return reassurance(self.name)
  1. The feedback function should take 2 arguments, so try to replace the period between self and grade with a comma.
  2. Remove right after the you start the if statement. Instead, just use "grade" without the word "self" in front of it .
  3. Try to remove the arguments for the praise and reassurance methods within the if/else statement. Instead, add self in front of both of the methods.

Good luck!
