He's a really excellent prof. He makes very detailed lesson videos that help with learning. The only issue is that the content is tough, so you need to put in the effort and try. But he is very kind and super chill too.

Brian is an amazing physics prof! I was terrified to take this class because I expected it to drop my average mark a whole lot, but I actually did a lot better than expected! Very fair tests and he is always ready to help He did a great job transitioning to online school during COVID.

Even in the midst of a pandemic, Professor Zulkoskey was able to run a lab class very successfully and keep everyone engaged. I had a great time in this class and would take more classes with him in the future

Brian makes physics easier to understand. He gives clear examples and demonstrations, encourages participation in class, and will find a way to answer your questions that makes sense to you. Physics is a heavy course, however Brian makes it much easier to grasp.

He is a good prof, and cares about his students. He gives good examples and tries to make the information clear. Physics 115 itself just has lots of homework, so you don't really have time to do practice problems on topics you actually need help with.

10/10 great prof. all of his examples are done on the board in class. is aware that most of the students in class were first years, and lectured in a way similar to high school teachers so that you could transition to uni lectures easily. was very easy to understand and didnt overcomplicate anything

Brian is an amazing prof! I did not do well in 115 but his teaching was very clear and I was able to understand topics much easier with his explanations. He is very accessible outside of class and does everything he can to make sure that his students succeed.

Physics isn't my favourite subject, but Brian made it interesting. He does a lot of examples and demonstrations in class that really help put the material in context. His use of TopHat is also very beneficial in understanding concepts and earning a few bonus marks.

Brian is very kind and cares about his students and will help you if you approach/email him. All his lectures are recorded and he posts the notes online but going to class is worth it because he is very entertaining

Best prof I've ever had hands down. I've always loved science but didn't connect with physics in high school. He made it exciting, so I rearranged my schedule to take his 117 class. Highly recommend!

I loved how Brian taught, he was an outstanding professor. Things always made sense even when the content was very difficult because he is so good at explaining. He also seems to really care; he gets genuinely upset at himself when the class doesn't do well on top-hat questions, and always makes time to meet with you outside of class.

He made me love physics again. Honestly wouldn't take this class with any other prof. He is very good at explaining. If you email him doubts, he will respond back quite fast with detailed explanations. He makes sure you are prepared for the tests by hosting extra study sessions. His lectures may have gotten a little dull at times but he's great.

Amazing prof. 10/10 would reccomend if you need to take Physics 115 or 117. Lectures are worth attending as they are interesting and helpful. Brian is extremely approachable and helpful as well. He is the definition of a great teacher

Great prof, makes physics as interesting as possible. Very clear expectations. Physics requires a lot of effort but all the assignments he gives helps understand the material. Labs are hell but lectures are made fun with humour. There are many quizzes and assignments (both assigned and optional) each week (along with the lab). Very time consuming

One of the best professors I have ever had in my first two years of university. Amazing choice for first year physics professor. I will be taking him next term in Phys 117 without a doubt.
