Summary/Abstract: My paper intends to illustrate a possible didactic scenario of how to teach The Subjunctive Mood to international students enrolled in the academic program entitled „The Preparatory Year of Romanian Language for Foreign Citizens” at Bucharest University of Economic Studies. The study is the partial result of teaching the „Practical Course of Romanian: Phonetics, Vocabulary and Sentence Structures” for about 9 academic years. This is part of a wider research, now in progress, as I am working on a Practical Romanian Grammar Book for Foreigners. I do believe that after The Present Tense in Romanian, the Subjunctive Mood is considered to be the 2nd most difficult tense in Romanian language, by foreign students, although there is a close grammatical connection between these 2 verbal tenses aspects. I can say for sure that knowing very well the Present Tense in Romanian ensures in the same time a good acquirement for the students of the Subjunctive Mood too. Of course, the peculiar grammatical aspects for the 3rd singular and plural person are to be mentioned and exemplified.
