Noel Foy

Neuroeducator, Consultant, Author, and Speaker

As founder of Neuro Noel Consulting, Noel’s mission is to empower teachers, parents, counselors, coaches and students with quick, user-friendly ways to use neuroeducation findings to their advantage. Having these tools can decrease stress, build underdeveloped skill sets and mindsets, and boost learning, engagement, Executive Function and performance in and beyond the classroom.

In response to the rise in anxiety, Noel has recently written an engaging, solution-focused story called ABC Worry Free, which provides readers of all ages with a transferable strategy to face and manage anxiety. She has also written the strategy-packed book, 15-Minute Focus: Executive Function.

For over 35 years, Noel has served as an educator in various capacities—classroom teacher at Landmark School, Learning Specialist at The Roxbury Latin School, and Professional Development Trainer for Keys to Literacy. Noel received her B.A. in Education/Special Education and her M.A. in American Studies from Boston College.
