Introduction: Instructional supervision may be defined as the activity of assisting, directing, advising, and fostering growth in teachers to increase teaching quality. Therefore, the study's main goal is to assess the awareness and practices of instructional supervision at the four private schools in Addis Ababa's Gulele sub-city. Three basic research questions were formulated to guide the study. Methods: This quantitative study used descriptive method. Available and simple random sampling approaches were used for selecting 100 participants. Data was gathered through the use of a survey questionnaire. From the pilot test, Cronbach's alpha reliability value for all categories of questions in the questionnaire was 0.925 which is valid and reliable. Frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, correlations, t-test, statistical significance(P-value) and effect size was analyzed using both descriptive and inferential statistics with the help of Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) Version 25. Significant level was 0.05 and 0.01 alpha. Contribution: This mini research contributes not only to filling the existing empirical study gap in the area at private school context but also it could aid a variety of parties in developing and implementing instructional supervision to help students and teachers deal with educational issues. Findings: The study's findings resulted that most of the respondents were aware of the basic aims and practices of instructional supervision. And while practicing instructional supervision, they necessitate high stakeholder’s participation.1.03 was the study’s Cohens d effect size which is in the magnitude of large. There was no statistically significant difference between the male’s and the female’s responses about awareness and practices of instructional supervision. In terms of the correlations between instructional supervision awareness and practices at the four private schools chosen, the Pearson correlation value with the significant level of 0.01 alpha was 0.785, which falls into the high category, indicates that there is a strong and positive link between the two. Conclusion: The majority of respondents were well aware of the benefits of instructional supervision for continuing professional growth. It may also be inferred that instructional supervision was being highly practiced in the aforementioned four private schools.
