The research aims to examine the occupational anxiety level of Mathematics teacher candidates according to some variables. The research sample included a total of 132 prospective teachers studying in Mathematics Teaching at Siirt University, Faculty of Education in the spring term of 2104-2015 academic year. The “Teacher Concern Checklist” adapted by Ažaban et al. from Borich and the personal information form developed by the researcher were used. The unrelated sample t-test and one-way variance analysis technique were used to analyze the data. The research results showed that the overall anxiety level of prospective teachers was moderate, and the average score they achieved from three dimensions of the concern checklist (task-centered anxiety, student- centered anxiety and self- centered anxiety) did not significantly differ by variables including gender, school year and type of high school they graduated from. Key words: Professional anxiety, anxiety, mathematics teacher candidate, education, teacher.
