The education system in Korea is gradually turning more to student-centered learning, moving away from the traditional teacher-centered learning. Flipped learning is regarded as a quite new concept of leaning approach or strategies. This study was to examine EFL middle school students’ English interest, motivation, and satisfaction in English class with flipped learning. The study furthermore investigated to answer difference in the students’ interest, learning motivation, and satisfaction based on their English proficiency. A total of 100 middle school students participated in this study. The questionnaire was composed of 46 item, including participants’ background information. The responses from the questionnaire were analyzed by statistical methods such as reliability, descriptive statistics, t-test, and correlation. The results of this study were as follows: First, in English class with flipped learning, students’ interest was generally average level. Second, the students’ motivation was higher than those of their interest. Third, the mean score of students’ satisfaction with the flipped was higher than those of their interest and motivation. Lastly, the relationship between students’ English scores and their levels of English interest, motivation, and satisfaction showed statistically significant (p < .01). In other words, the students’ interest and motivation were significantly different in terms of their English proficiency level. However, there was no significant relationship between English score and class satisfaction with flipped classes. Regardless of students’ proficiency level, they enjoyed English flipped learning. Based on the study findings teaching implications in order to improve English flipped instruction for middle school students are provided.
