With the soaring development of science and technology, the traditional educational idea and educational mode have been unable to meet the actual teaching demands. As an open teaching resource, the flipped class teaching model has overturned the traditional college English teaching model, helpful to train students’ interests in learning English and autonomous learning ability. This paper analyzes the characteristics of the flipped class teaching model and its necessity in the college English teaching and provides effective countermeasures for the problems in applying the flipped class teaching model to the college English teaching, in order to lay a solid foundation in improving the efficiency of college English teaching.
