- Abstract
Mathematics anxiety refers to the negative emotional reactions such as anxiety, tension, uneasiness and fear, and even physiological manifestations, such as sweating, rapid heartbeat and so on. Mathematics anxiety may lead mathematics learners to avoid mathematics learning, resulting in the reduction of academic achievements. Not only students, but also math teachers show the symptoms of math anxiety. Existing studies have proved that mathematics anxiety exists in many groups of teachers. Therefore, this paper focuses on the causes and influencing factors of primary school teachers’ mathematics anxiety, analyzes the coping styles, and puts forward some suggestions for future research direction.
