Where Each Shines
Strengths and trade-offs
Flip Education strengths
Custom-built for your classroom, every time
Every Flip lesson is generated fresh for your exact topic, grade, and board. There is no need to search through thousands of results hoping something fits or to adapt a resource built for a foreign curriculum.
Pedagogy built into the structure
Choose from 48 research-backed methodologies like Socratic seminar, jigsaw, or gallery walk. The methodology shapes the entire activity arc, whereas TpT resources use whichever approach the seller preferred.
Free and instant
Generate a complete lesson plan in 60 seconds at no cost. TpT resources often require payment in dollars, and you still need time to browse, evaluate, and adapt them for Indian classrooms.
SEL and curriculum alignment are automatic
Every lesson maps to Social and Emotional Learning competencies and national standards like NCERT. On TpT, you have to manually verify if the alignment suits the Indian context.
Works across 10 countries
Standards from India, the UK, US, and Singapore are built into every generation. While TpT is heavily US-focused, Flip understands the requirements of Indian schools.
Offline-first active learning
Students debate, investigate, and create using printed materials. No expensive devices are required in the classroom: the learning happens through peer interaction, not a screen.
Teachers Pay Teachers strengths
7 million+ resources across every subject
TpT offers an enormous catalogue including worksheets, games, classroom decor, and bulletin boards. If you need materials beyond lesson planning, the selection is vast.
Created by experienced teachers
Every resource is made by a practitioner who has tested it in a real classroom. Peer reviews and ratings help you judge the quality before you commit.
Supporting fellow educators
Purchases directly support teacher-sellers. Many educators value the community aspect and the chance to help colleagues earn an income from their expertise.
