What am I missing here?

Hello, could you tell me what I am missing here?

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 praise()
        if grade <= 50:
            return reassurance()

when returning a method most likely you will have to put self in front of it such as when he put Keith.theif so that is the self part. so the code should look like this 

def feedback(self,grade):
        if grade < 50:
            return self.reassurance()
        if grade > 50:
            return self.praise()
