Can the word "in" only be used as a preposition?

Hello Fred
1) 'in' can be used as a preposition as you mention.
i.e: I am interested in grammar.
2) It can also be used as an adverb. 
i e: My husband is not in (Meaning my husband is not at home)
3) It can be used as an adjective.
i e: I will wear an in dress on Sunday party. (meaning a nice dress according to current fashion)
4) It can also be used as a noun.
i e. I don't know my neighbour's ins and outs (meaning someone's acts of going or coming.
I hope this can be useful for you. 😊
Kind regards,

The word " in " can be also be used as an adverb. 
Example: Go in. We're locked in.
in this usage it is telling you where the action is taking place.

The word " in " can also be used as an adjective.
Example: Dr. Smith is in. The teacher will be in shortly.
in this usage it is usually about someone being present at their office or post.

The work " in " can also be used informally.
Example: Long nails are in. (meaning there are in style, current in fashion)

Hope this helps.





It can also be used as an Adverb. "Come in", here it has been used as an adverb qualifying a verb.

I have more than 3 years of experience teaching languages, including English, to children, young people and adults. I am a professional teaching languages ​​with a university degree (bachelor).
I am using the spoken method to help students lose their fear of speaking Spanish and have confidence in themselves

My methodology is 80% spoken and 20% grammar so this method is reliable and recommended to quickly learn Spanish. 
Additionally, during classes, topics of interest to the student will be set. In this way, the way of learning to speak Spanish will be more familiar and easier. In the same way, corrections will be made at the same time.
