The action of teaching understands a “gift” in primary education was a milestone in the feminization of teaching. This bibliographic study sought to analyze the teacher’s training from Escola Normal and Vocational course in Teaching (High School) and the relationship between feminization and the exercise of teaching. This study wore wrote from the analysis of 15 dissertations and 5 theses that address the training of teachers to work on literacy in the “Triangulo Mineiro” and “Alto Paranaíba”, from 1946 to 1979. For the development of the research, we used the New Cultural History as a theoretical contribution. We identified that the choice for teaching was not motivated by a desire or dream for the profession and that the majority of students were women. The literacy teachers were directed to this profession due to family desire and a current moral imposition, based on the Christian values ​​disseminated in the Churches. The men moved away from primary teaching due to the devaluation of the area and low salaries, as well as the influence of the Catholic Church, which presented moral impediments to male performance in primary education while extolling the role of women in this function based on the idea vocation and extension of motherhood. In this context, it was necessary to train teachers, women, to instruct in primary education. This movement culminated in the feminization of the sector.
