The population includes first and second grade math teachers in a secondary school (district 1 and 2) at the city of Sanandaj. The sample size was 120 teachers who were selected for quantitative research. Semi-structured interviews were validated by experts reviewed and confirmed. The reliability for questions related to part one (the practical challenges.72) and questions related to the part two (challenges of eclectic.78) were confirmed by Cronbach's alpha coefficient. The results showed that the most important practical challenges of teachers at content, teaching-learning strategies and assessment at order were: A large amount of textbooks and its various, A large amount of students at classrooms and result-based assessments. The most challenges of teacher eclectic was limitation of time for reflection, lack of teacher deliberation at teacher training programs and teacher-proof curriculum at educational system. The grounded theory showed that practical challenges of teachers at math teaching are so much. While eclectic challenges of teachers at math teaching is so much, but eclectic action of them is a few.
