Makale Özeti: The aim of this study is to reveal the relationship among preservice mathematics teachers’ conceptual knowledge, opinions regarding proof and proof skills in terms of the definition of the convergence of a sequence. The participants of the research are composed of six pre-service mathematics teachers who are thirdyear students at the department of elementary mathematics teaching in a state university located in Turkey. The data of the research were collected via semi-structured interviews. According to the findings of the research, it was found that the majority of the preservice teachers who participated in the study did not have a sufficient level of conceptual knowledge on the definition of convergence of sequence; that their opinions on proof were negative; and that their level of success in proving the theorem, which they had proven before, was considerably low. Furthermore, it was found in the research that there was a strong relationship among pre-service teachers’ conceptual knowledge, opinions regarding proof and proof skills, and the academic success achieved in the related course did not reflect on their proof skills.
