Hello! My name is Luis Ruiz. I’ve had over 10 years teaching experience. I have worked in a 5th grade classroom for over 3 years and I’ve been teaching online for over 3 years. Additionally I’ve  been tutoring children for over 10 years. I’ve taught students English, Reading, Spanish, and Life Skills. I strive to incorporate the students needs into my lessons and make the environment fun yet educational. I also have a Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education with ESOL endorsement. 
When teaching children I enjoy incorporating things children's enjoy in order to make learning more enjoyable for them. I also strive to make each student feel welcome and happy in class.

I enjoy fitness as well and offer themed classes that allow students to exercise with their favorite cartoon characters. I have a variety of discussion classes as well in which students can talk about their favorite video games or cartoons while learning social skills in the process. I currently offer vocabulary, spelling, fitness, discussion, Spanish, and alphabet classes to a variety of learners. I make sure to encourage my learners through positive reinforcement and a happy environment.

Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions and make sure to follow my profile to stay up to date on any upcoming classes. I look forward to seeing you all in my virtual classroom! :)
