Terminology help / IP asks me to provide NAT destination address?

I am currently connected to the internet with a router that stands behind the router of my service provider. The router from service provider gives IP over DHCP to my router and all is fine. Their router has a public IP and I need to ask them to port forward to me.

As I want to remove the middle-man, I wanted them to provide me with IP, network and gateway to enter into my router which setting I have elsewhere.

They replied asking if I need public IP for NAT-ing, but I don't know what that means.

Thanks!
