BG5 Business Institute Instructor Testimonials
Tuck Self


Absolutely a great course, Tuck explain it very clearly. I love to learn about the mechanics and I feel BG5 is much more thorough compared to my HD courses / analysis. I loved the way you Tuck taught this class - personal, informative and creating a space to share experiences.

I found the recaps in the beginning in each class super helpful. Especially the exercises, as I feel I need to practice a lot to really grab its meaning. 

Due to its depth I feel that it is also quite a high pace (which I absolutely love!). But really living it takes more time for me than just 10 weeks.”

I just wanted to provide my feedback about my experience with BG5 Foundations as I just finished Foundations 2 with Tuck.

I absolutely LOVED these classes. I already have quite a bit of experience with Human Design and have been studying my own design in depth for years. The level of clarity I received through these courses, both on my own design as well as the design of others was absolutely incredible!!!

I LOVE the way Tuck presented the information. Her 12/22 strength was clearly evident in the beautiful, poetic and comprehensive way she synthesized all of the information.

I'll also say that as a 5/1 Express Builder with the wait-for-clarity Decision Making Strategy, I soooo appreciated having a teacher with such a similar design. In addition to sharing the same career type, Decision Making Strategy and Public Role, we also share the 53/42 and 14/2 strengths and I just loved learning about these from someone who has first hand experience of what it's like to live these aspects of our designs. Tuck and I also share trait 39 which is one I've been struggling with for years. I finally was able to open up to the gifts of this trait and my life feels transformed.

Although I've studied with many different people, Tuck is my first direct teacher (Ra is an indirect teacher for me) with a 1st quality in her public profile. My 1st quality soooooooo appreciated the level of depth she went into all of the information and the classes were definitely jam-packed with information.

I also want to applaud Juste and Loveleen. They were such a valuable addition to the class. I really appreciated their support and sharing their own experiences through the lens of their design. Having the teaching team be comprised of 3 different career types was super valuable.

I'm super excited to move on to BG5 Certification with Tuck next week. I'll be signing up for the entire year and have just waited to sign up to align with cash flow timing. I'll definitely sign up before Wednesday. I'm also super enamored with OC16 and I think I want to take it all the way.

Lastly, I will say that my 5th quality really appreciates the practical language of BG5. I LOVE Human Design and plan on becoming an Analyst down the road as well. However, learning the BG5 language has been such a gift. It just makes so much more sense than a lot of the Human Design language and I love that I'm able to share design with people through this beautiful, empowering and practical language.

Thank you so much for these amazing courses. Looking forward to seeing how it all unfolds.

Every time I think about BG5, my sacral lights up like crazy:)”

”Tuck has been a fantastic teacher in guiding me through the BG5 journey.

I love her teaching style. She is very relatable and humorous and explains the content in a way that is simple, digestible, and easy to understand.

She takes the time to answer everyone's questions and allows students to share insights.

I also appreciate the assignments and that Tuck highlights certain things from our assignments.

Overall, I have great energy and look forward to Semester 1 in January!”

"I’ve enjoyed the classes so much and I’ve learned so much. Tuck's energy and teaching methodology is really great. I love her warm and friendly approach. I can’t think of anything that needs to change, it’s so good as it is!

Juste and Loveleen (class assistants) are such a complement to the classes. I am grateful for their comments and participation. I really enjoyed and appreciated the comments from classmates, they asked questions that I was curious about as well. So many intelligent and thoughtful women!

Like some others, it’ll take me several times going through the materials to absorb it all, especially with my triple split assimilation. I wish I was able to attend the classes live, but my new job doesn’t give me the freedom to do so."

~Brenda Kaluza




"The combination of easy-to-understand classes, working on assignments, and shares from the classmates helped me to learn efficiently.

I loved Tuck's class very much. Together with Ann, she succeeded to run brisk and welcoming classes. Not only in the classes, I also enjoyed the Overview session which was given after Semester 1. Thanks to the generosity of Tuck, I was offered additional detailed information which gave me an idea of what we were to learn in Semester 2 and more importantly, a silver lining for my life. After this Overview session, I made up my mind to move on to the Certification Course.

Working on the assignments helped me to face myself. I have started to recognize my nature and like myself. Ann's warm comments encouraged me to work on the assignments.

Learning with a variety of classmates was really exciting and fruitful. I learned a lot from their shares in the classroom and the assignments. 

It was such an eye-opening learning for me. I am very satisfied with my decision to take the BG5 Foundation Course!"

"I am both a real estate broker as well as a business consultant for CEO's. BG5 has provided me a deeper insight to effectively guide my clients in creatively and effectively managing the pressures associated with their business endeavors."

~Barbara Ditlow




"...this course...gave me a great foundation for understanding the basics so I could build on things from there. The specific aspect I liked most about this course was having the recordings and PDFs for continued reference and support. I find I have to continue to go over this material to best understand things and continue to evolve. Three other benefits I recognized about this course are Confidence, in that the information is accurate. Deeper connection with people and more accepting and more curious of other people. I recommend the Foundations course to others; I feel this is the premier personal awareness tool that I know about today."

"Just a quick note to share my testimonial about Tuck Self's BG5 Business Consultant Certification - Semester 1. I loved it. Tuck does an excellent job teaching the course. Great job!"

~Anett B Avelin




"I would like to take this opportunity to thanks Tuck, Petra and Melissa for such a good 10 classes of Semester 1.  All of them are so dedicated and knowledgeable in sharing and leading the class, I have learned a lot. 

In particular, I would like to show my 100% appreciation to Tuck, I do acknowledge her for being in the room and focus in doing her very best although she is actually been through a lots outside the room. This shows how professional she is, and I am so glad to be in the room with the guidance from her. 

Thanks to the BG5 management and administration team too!  

Thanks to ALL!"

"If you want to know: Who are you? Where are you going? How do you relate to both the world of business and to your life in general? You can find the beginnings of this journey of questions here with the BG5 Foundation 1 & 2 classes.  With a presentation that is focused, you can efficiently explore your design and the beginnings of how your design impacts those around you. What is your best working style? What is your preferred role? How do you assimilate information?  What are your general themes? These questions are all answered! The classwork is well structured and the instructional staff is very well prepared. The teacher or teachers convey their life experiences in conjunction with those of the students to make the material meaningful and relevant. The classes are small enough that you can fully participate in the classroom experience.   


In three words: Focused, Transformative, Relevant. Life is a journey.  If you want to move your life forward, this is the place to start!"

"I'd like to provide feedback for Tuck as my trainer on the BG5 Foundation Course. First of all, I'd like to say that her vivid voice was very nice to hear and learn from. In the online course format the main tool of the trainer is their voice and Tuck's was influential. I liked very much the way she interacted with us - she was very friendly and open for our questions, sharing and personal process. The course lessons were structured and the information on the topics was clearly provided. This is something that is very important for me personally. 

From my perspective she treated us with care and curiosity. I am looking forward to working with Tuck again."

~Ani Doycheva




"Thank you Tuck. The way of giving and transmitting the information seemed precise to me, you have a very clear way of transmitting Tuck. The contributions of all my colleagues have also been very enriching. I take new things and a new way of how to communicate and desire to continue.

A hug to all and we will continue in the next quarter."

~Jasone D.Gereñu




"I would like to let you know that I have enjoyed semester 1 with the fabulous Tuck as my mentor and teacher. I attended each class live, and always appreciated Tucks enjoyable, fun, teaching style and detailed content.

Overall, semester 1 has been a really good experience, the content is immediately useful and beneficial to myself and to those I have shared an overview with. I have been moved and inspired by Tuck and in awe of her remarkable resilience and capability, despite life changing personal circumstances. Tuck crafted the course with precision and clarity while being completely human each week. I have really enjoyed the process of the end of semester project. The value of which has been enormous. I absolutely love the BG5 community, truly valuable, especially in these times.  

I am grateful to for Tucks depth of teaching and crystal-clear attention.  I have felt so comfortable in the group dynamic with Tuck. Understanding more about that means so much to me.

Looking forward to Semester 2."
