RESUMO:

This work aims to discuss about representativeness and gender roles in Mathematics degrees in Mossoro – RN, based on the experiences of professors working in these courses. For this, using the Oral History approach and, through interviews with selected professors, Emphasis will be placed on gender matters that permeate the lives of these teachers. Soon after, the interviews were transcribed and textualized, in a move to put the experiences reported by the teachers into textual format and, at a later point, an agreement was reached on the final textualized version of their words. The analysis of the narratives produced by the teachers was prepared by articulating themes that came to light during the interviews, in an analysis of convergences. With the intention not of synthesizing, but rather of drawing attention to insistent points in the teachers' statements. The themes analyzed were the encouragement received during childhood and adolescence, from family or people close to them; representation of teachers or notable figures during this period; decision-making to pursue a career that involved mathematics; feeling of belonging to the academic environment, taking into account the particular nuances of the mathematics course; and the balance between academic and personal life. Among the results perceived, the relationships between teachers and their families stand out, which generally act as the first contact with what is or is not possible for teachers, thus directing them - even if indirectly. In this same line of thought, a crucial role of teachers themselves was also observed, not only during childhood and adolescence; but also assuming the position of a mirror to be followed and of showing and encouraging postgraduate paths. Furthermore, the importance of giving these women the opportunity to have their experiences with mathematics without having to hide their emotions, to be respected, to be given the opportunity to make mistakes without judgment and to have their voices equally heard was highlighted. Another strong point observed was motherhood - or lack thereof - throughout their careers, and the importance of a support network for teachers.
