This study is a study that discusses the importance of mastery mathematics teacher to teach mathematical definition in the learning process so it can adding the teacher's self-esteem. Math knowledge that meant here is a standard mathematical knowledge that must be possessed by teachers in teaching mathematical definition. Where the definition of mathematics here is a mathematical definition in teaching, so that every student who learns math has an understanding and a standard definition of the topic or material they studied, in our study doing a review of some research that has been done before. The results are gained are many teachers who regard the standard math ability for teaching is very important to be mastered however, only some of them are correct.
