Bio
Ashen Dinuka Peeris
As a Lecturer, Mr. Medhisha is a person who has excellent teaching skills and guiding skills. I’ve worked under his guidance in my final years of my degree and done my final year research project under his supervision. It was a great time from which I gained lots of experience and knowledge on subject matter and also teamwork. He was a great lecturer who I trusted and I am delighted to work with him and learn from him.
