Abstract: This paper deals with new perspectives and challenges related to teaching grammar in an EFL class and highlights the fact that grammar instruction should be focused more on an eclectic approach rather than on a single teaching method. The theoretical section compares traditional and modern language teaching methods, highlighting some advantages and disadvantages. The practical section represents the pedagogical research, whose purpose is to demonstrate the efficiency of modern teaching methods of English verb tenses that can be applied in the EFL classroom. The research conducted on two groups of students, i.e. an experiment and a control one, was based on the hypothesis that the use of key elements and strategies specific to the modern teaching methods of English verb tenses increases the quality of instruction and of student achievement.
