Abstract

Both writing and reading a proof is equally not easy. Some mathematicians attested that students found difficulties in mathematical proving. Mathematics and mathematics education experts like Jones (1997, 2001), Weber (2001), and Smith (2006) found that difficulty in proof writing is due to: lack of theorem and concept understanding, lack of proving ability, and there is a teaching-learning process that unites with the subject. So, it is truly needed that class of writing proof in order to help to generate students’ ability to do mathematical proving. Polya method is going to be that purpose. Keywords: mathematics proof, Polya method
