Amy Gulley is the owner of A2 Literacy Consulting & Tutoring in Evergreen, Colorado. Prior to opening her private practice in 2024, Amy was the Director of Learning and Development and Dyslexia Specialist at Step By Step Learning/ MGT. Amy managed all Step By Step consultants and designed professional development to deliver both internally and externally. She worked directly with consultants to ensure all consultants were current in Structured Literacy instructional practices. Prior to her position at Step By Step Learning, Amy was the Director of Trainers for The Institute for Multisensory Education (IMSE) as well as the Dyslexia Specialist. She managed and trained instructors in the Orton- Gillingham methodology and Structured Literacy practices. Before her role at IMSE, Amy was a Dyslexia Specialist providing direct dyslexia services to students in the public school system in Texas. She believes one of the best ways to close the reading gap in this country is to provide ALL students the opportunity to evidence-based instructional practices.

The UWSP doctoral program in Literacy and Language aligns perfectly with Amy’s professional experience and her passion and dedication to literacy instruction to educators and structured literacy practices with students.
