Abstract: “The traditional teaching model of English linguistics does not apply to the current college English major in China. Against the background, teachers should create the suitable ones in their context. Therefore, under the guidance of action research, it is suggested that an empirical study should be conducted in order to investigate the feasibility of using flipped classroom model in teaching English linguistics courses with a view to constructing its flipped classroom model and exploring the validity of corresponding teaching strategies. Findings of this study show that applying flipped classroom model helps to promote students learning abilities and comprehensive quality and improving teaching effects as well. This is to recommend that modern teaching methods characterized by information technology require teachers growth in a professional way.”
