The purpose is to investigate the relationship between Teaching professional skills and teaching effectiveness in math subjects among primary school teachers in Herat City. The research population is the primary school teachers of Herat city. A sample size of 448 primary school teachers has been assessed with a self-assessment scale, and 48 teachers have been observed during their teaching process. The findings indicate there are issues in skills development teaching methods. Providing continuous training for teachers to make them coordinate with education goals and methods is inevitable. The research findings also showed that the teachers do not relate the teaching material to the students’ real life as much as expected. Furthermore, teachers often try to convey the course content to students through a passive method instead of guiding students and motivating them to hypothesize, creative thinking, and solve problems. On the other hand, teacher training programs and in-service education do not have a close relationship with teaching modern theories. Therefore, the programs and methods need to be reviewed and revised.
