The purpose of this investigation was to point out the association between the construct “Math teaching performance” and the variable “Math academic performance” with the factor “Student positive aspects”, characterized by perseverance, resilience and recognition of discipline, in the Colegio de Bachilleres Militarizado General Mariano Escobedo del Estado de Nuevo León. The study was cross-sectional, non-experimental, descriptive and correlational, with a standardized test census applied to 484 fourth, fifth and sixth grade students from Apodaca, San Bernabé and San Nicolás units. A multiple linear regression technique was run with the independents construct and variable and the dependent factor. A theoretical model that reflects the variables included in the factors was proposed. The results showed that there is an association between the work that the math teacher carries out in the classroom and the levels of certain students’ personal characteristics such as perseverance, resilience and discipline recognition. Therefore, an empirical model is exposed. In conclusion, the use of exercises and tasks in math that help students to memorize concepts and procedures as well as apply the knowledge acquired in class to solved problems or situations is suggested to stimulate study positive personal aspects.
