Today, technology surrounds people in every field of life. Everything is done with the help of technology. New information can also be obtained from the internet with or also without teacher guidance. While learning a foreign language, it can be achieved online and supporting activities can be done in class. This is one of the most up to date models of teaching in recent years. It is called Flipped Classroom Model (FCM) and has also been applied at some schools or universities all around the world. Therefore, FC has been studied and evaluated by the researchers from different perspectives. This study describes the investigation which tries to find out the effect of flipped classroom on the perceptions and achievement scores of the preparatory class students. It was applied at Cappadocia University with 22 participants of a preparatory class. The data was collected with both qualitative and quantitative instruments such as pre-test score, post-test score, survey, interview and field notes. The data was analysed by coding, categorizing, using IBM SPSS 25, getting means, frequency and standard deviation. The data showed that the participants had positive perceptions about both non-flipped and flipped classrooms. However, the pre-test and post-test scores of the students did not show a significant difference after the implementation.
