It is generally known that the flipped classroom approach is an instructional strategy that involves reversing the traditional roles of in-class lectures and homework. It can offer many potential benefits, such as an active way of learning, enhanced student engagement, and immediate feedback. However, not all subjects or topics may be suitable for the flipped approach, and it may not be the best fit for every teacher or student.

In the article, the author first briefly describes the flipped classroom method and then shows its advantages and disadvantages. Finally, the example of the implementation of the flipped classroom method in the Czech language course for foreigners is given and analyzed together with a brief survey of opinions on the flipped classroom method.
