Indentation using awk

1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data:
I need to write an awk program who does this (sorry its too big)
Image

2. Relevant commands, code, scripts, algorithms:
..


3. The attempts at a solution (include all code and scripts):
declaring a new variable which counts the { }
for each { the counter increases and for each } decreases
before any line put spaces * $counter (using while..I think)
I was working on it over an hour and I'm desperate..

4. Complete Name of School (University), City (State), Country, Name of Professor, and Course Number (Link to Course):
lessons taken by private teacher Noa Zrachia

Note: Without school/professor/course information, you will be banned if you post here! You must complete the entire template (not just parts of it).

Thank you!
