A prospective elementary school teacher needs to know the epistemic beliefs in him in order to prepare for reading comprehension learning well. The purpose of this study is to reveal a map of previous research on epistemic elementary school teachers in preparing for reading comprehension learning, so that further research opportunities can be carried out. In addition, this study also aims to determine the epistemic role of prospective elementary school teachers in preparing to learn reading comprehension skills. This research is a systematic literature review research that has four phases. These four phases are exploration, visualization, identification, and verification. The results showed 1) research on epistemic primary school teacher candidates and reading comprehension is still not carried out in Indonesia, because the research orientation focuses on solving reading comprehension problems; 2) The teacher's epistemic perspective is the basic foundation that can be used to develop effective reading comprehension learning. Theoretically, the implication of this study is that teacher epistemics need to be known from the beginning because mature epistemic primary school teacher candidates will be able to design and use effective learning and text understanding strategies. Teachers' epistemic beliefs need to be known from the beginning even since taking teacher education.
