About Me

Hello, my name is George Phillip. I teach middle school (5th and 6th) social studies. I have been teaching for 5 years now and love it! About two years ago, I decided to move from a teacher centered classroom to a student centered classroom. The most efficient way I have determined to do this was Flipping my classroom. In the website, you will find examples and thoughts about my journey with the Flipped Classroom model (or Reversing Instruction). I hope that this sight will be as helpful as many of the other websites I have found have been. Please leave comments and suggestions, as I am always looking at improving my teaching.

I have been lucky enough to attend and present at different conference on my experiences in my classroom and have learned more in a three day conference, than I ever have during college. 

I am member of ISTE (International Society for Technology in Education) and ISACS (Independent School Association of the Central States). I am also my schools Social Studies Department Chair, moderator for the Flipped Learning Network, and am studying to attain my Masters in Educational Technology from Boise State University. 

Last but not least, I am a father of two wonderful little girls, ages 2.5 and newborn.
