You dnt need apex class for this
  
<apex:page sidebar="false" standardController="Contact">

<apex:form>
    <apex:pageBlock title="My Content" mode="edit">
      <apex:pageBlockButtons>
        <apex:commandButton action="{!save}" value="Save"/>
        <apex:commandButton action="{!cancel}" value="Cancel"/>

      </apex:pageBlockButtons>
      <apex:pageBlockSection title="My Content Section" columns="2">
        <apex:inputField value="{!Contact.FirstName}"/>
        <apex:inputField value="{!Contact.LastName}"/>
        <apex:inputField value="{!Contact.Email}"/>
        <apex:inputField value="{!Contact.Phone}"/>
      </apex:pageBlockSection>
    </apex:pageBlock>
  </apex:form>
  
  
</apex:page>
