React Native simulator command not running?

I am struggling to run the react-native run-ios command im unsure if this source base was created with create-react-native ? The teacher states that should launch my simulator although my terminal gives the generic command not found?

You need to install React Native CLI Tools for that command:

npm install -g react-native-cli-tools

If you still have issues after getting it installed see here: https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/getting-started.html and select the "Building Projects with Native Code" tab. Make sure you have everything installed correctly.
