Educational practicum is an important activity for the students majoring in Mathematics in Chinese normal universities. During this process, numerous interns feel not adapted to the work. According to a questionnaire survey of interns majoring in Mathematics in four normal universities in China, it is found the difficulties they have encountered in the internship process mainly are the problems related to practical teachings, such as: How do they prepare for teaching before class? How do they teach in class in a flexible way? And how do they evaluate students’ performance after class? etc. It indicates that the current students of mathematics major in normal universities do not familiar with the school teaching practice, do not understand the characteristics of real middle school students, the textbook and the classroom, do not master the practical mathematics teaching skills and teaching research way yet. Therefore, it is suggested to develop more practical teaching courses of students in normal universities, reform the teaching of normal universities actively, so as to enhance the teaching skills of normal students, strengthen the guidance teachers’ force of education. Additionally, it is suggested to encourage interns to learn actively during the internship, ask for advice from the guidance teachers and listen to their lectures frequently.
