Abstract

This paper has reviewed the previous studies on EFL flipped teaching and found the following characteristics. First, most studies have confirmed the effectiveness of the use of the flipped classroom approach in EFL teaching. They have also proved that this approach can bring a lot of benefits to EFL teaching and learning such as enhancing EFL learners' English proficiency and promoting their autonomy, motivation, learning attitudes and engagement in the learning process. And most participants in those studies showed positive perceptions of EFL flipped teaching. Second, in recent years, an increasing number of empirical studies on EFL flipped teaching have emerged and contributed a lot to the body of flipped studies. Moreover, most of those studies have employed both quantitative and qualitative approaches to examine EFL flipped teaching. However, there are still a lot more aspects of EFL flipped teaching that need to be investigated. This paper has also offered some suggestions on the future research in this field.
