This study aims to identify whether the mathematical training of primary school teachers influences the performance of students in solving mathematical problems. This is a descriptive, quantitative research, with a non-experimental, cross-sectional design. The survey and a test were used as a data collection instrument, which was applied to teachers and students. 5 schools from the Cabecera district were selected and a probabilistic sample was applied with a confidence level of 95%. The sample consisted of 99 teachers and 340 students. The sample consisted of 99 teachers and 340 students. The statistical analysis of the collected data made it possible to describe the weaknesses that primary level teachers present in terms of their mathematical training in the areas of arithmetic, geometry, statistics and measurement systems.
