Teacher attitude toward mathematical problem solving and its learning process is very influential on the teaching of problem solving in classroom. There have been many research experts who focus on research about teachers attitude toward mathematics in general, but they rarely sees how the teachers attitude toward mathematical problems solving and its learning process. This study aims to answer both that questions. The research type is qualitative with survey method. Three mathematics teachers from three different schools were selected as research subjects. Teaching videos of each teacher, questionnaires, and interviews with open questions were used as instruments to see the attitude. Each teacher was given a questionnaire on teachers attitude toward mathematical problem solving and its learning process, after which the teachers was also interviewed. Based on the research process, it can be concluded there are three categories of teacher attitude level toward mathematical problem solving and its learning process: good, very good, and excellent.
