Seo, Eun-mi. “Case Study on Improving English Language Proficiency Using Flipped Learning.” Studies in English Language & Literature 47.4 (2021): 287-303. This paper is about the effect of using flipped learning to improve English proficiency in the English Communication classroom. Flipped learning has been used in secondary and higher education to make students independent learners. This case study was conducted in the fall semester of 2020 with 13 college students. In the classroom, students interacted with other students through discussion, group work and other projects based on their preparation of lessons. Flipped learning worked well since students prepared for topics ahead of classes. They participated in classroom discussion and presentation. A native speaker also cooperated to facilitate students to talk about the certain topics in English. In this paper, the researcher found out that students become responsible for their learning process. As a result, students were able to express their opinion in English. Students became self-directed learners and responsible for their learning. It is highly recommended to use flipped learning in college English classes. (Howon University)
