摘要：The contemplator of mathematics teaching notes that the educational outcomes have not reached the acceptable level in the State of Kuwait; It is punctuated by many problems, represented by the low educational attainment of students, so the current study aimed to reveal the effectiveness of a proposed training program based on professional competencies in the light of international standards in developing the teaching performance of mathematics teachers at the intermediate stage in Kuwait. the descriptive analytical approach, the constructivist approach, and the quasi-experimental approach. To achieve the objectives of the study, a teaching competency questionnaire, a note card, and a training program based on professional competencies were prepared. The study sample consisted of 30 middle school mathematics teachers (the eighth-grade teachers). The study tools were applied to them, appropriate statistical analyzes were performed and quantitative results were extracted. The results of the study showed that the professional competencies that mathematics teachers at the intermediate stage in the State of Kuwait should master in light of international standards came within a medium degree of proficiency; The field of teaching implementation competencies came in the first place, and in the second place came the field of teaching planning competencies. In the third and final place came the field of teaching evaluation competencies. The results also showed that there were statistically significant differences at the significance level (? = 0.05) between the scores of the quasi-experimental group members on the teaching performance in favor of the post-measurement. The study recommended the necessity of paying attention to the professional competencies of mathematics educators in the intermediate stage, by holding specialized in-service courses that include theoretical and practical mathematical and educational knowledge and information. And the need to pay attention to the professional growth of middle school mathematics teachers and the integration of knowledge and skills, in order to reach a high level of competence necessary for teaching mathematics.
