The present methodological guide aims to provide both a theoretical and a practical perspective on the English parts of speech. The theoretical discussion draws primarily on authoritative reference grammars, including Quirk et al. (1985), Huddleston and Pullum (2002), Biber et al. (1999), Swan (2016), and Downing and Locke (2006). These works represent the most influential descriptions of Present-Day English and constitute the foundation of contemporary English grammar.

From a methodological perspective, the guide integrates traditional grammatical analysis with modern communicative language teaching principles. Each chapter combines theoretical explanations with pedagogical recommendations, classroom activities, examples of authentic language use and suggestions for formative and summative assessment. Particular attention is devoted to the difficulties encountered by Romanian learners of English, especially where significant structural differences exist between Romanian and English.
The guide may serve as a practical reference for beginning teachers, undergraduate and postgraduate students in English language education, and anyone interested in developing a comprehensive understanding of English grammar and its classroom application. The overall objective of this work is not merely to describe the English parts of speech, but to demonstrate how sound grammatical knowledge can be transformed into effective classroom practice. Consequently, the guide seeks to bridge the gap between theoretical linguistics and language pedagogy, providing future teachers with both academic knowledge and practical teaching tools
