It can be several parts of speech, but not an adverb.

Present is an adjective -- the present state of affairs. (current.) Or -- My body is present, but my mind is elsewhere. (here.)

Present is also a noun -- I received many Christmas presents. (gift.)

Present is a verb, as well -- I present this answer to you. (give.)

Presently is the adverb form, and it usually means right now. I am presently answering this question.
