Abstract
This work presents a clear view of the current teacher preparation situation in Bolivia and the possibility to compare Bolivian reality with other countries. Teacher preparation in Bolivia has had three major changes: the first with the land reform of 1952, the second with the 1994 educational reform law and finally with the enactment of the Avelino Siñani—Elizardo Perez law in 2006. Today, although the teacher preparation system is open to applicants from urban and rural areas, an excess in the supply of Mathematics teachers has led to a pause in the calls for new future teachers of Mathematics.
