I ran into a wall with the feedback method and I am unsure if it's a syntax issue or an issue with the objects setup

Below is the current code that I have. Also, what python version is this tutorial using? e.g. 2.7 as I want to ensure that any articles that I am reading online align with this tutorial.

class Student: name = "Your 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()
else: grade < 50
    return self.reassurance()
first_class.py 
class Student:
    name = "Your 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()
    else: grade < 50
        return self.reassurance()

Check your indentation.

For a line of code to be considered part of a function, it must be indented. The first line that is not indented indicates that the function code has ended. So in this case, the function has no code.
