This paper analyzes the role of knowledge in teacher training. In particular, it deals with the mathematical training both future teachers of Ensino Fundamental (elementary school) as those of Ensino Médio (high school), considering the current terminology of the Brazilian school system. In the analysis, the text builds on studies that have been developed by the Research Team in the History of Educational Sciences (ERHISE), University of Geneva, Switzerland. Search It will show that the professionalization of mathematics educator, in contrast to the math teacher, has the "math to teach" its constitutive reference. The empirical basis of the study takes into account research related to the history of Brazilian mathematics education, especially the 1930s, which had highlighted the actions of Euclides Roxo teacher.
