Mathematics teachers’ beliefs about primary school students’ mathematical attitudes

Primary school mathematics education is crucial to building a strong foundation for students’ mathematical knowledge and skills. Students’ attitudes towards mathematics and the teaching habits of their teachers play a significant role in their engagement and achievement. Teachers’ perceptions of primary school mathematics lessons and their understanding of students’ attitudes and teaching habits are critical in designing effective instructional strategies. In our article, we investigated these areas by conducting research among primary school mathematics teachers. The main findings are that mathematics teachers are mostly positive about their students’ attitudes toward mathematics, the atmosphere of their lessons, and their own teaching methods in terms of suitability.
