Can I make courses in Sinhala or Tamil?
Yes! Visit the front page and switch the language in the drop-down menu at the top-right corner. 
There are many possibilities and techniques involved in getting multiple languages. In short, either you configure your keyboard to enter unicode. Then, when you type in Sinhala you get සිංහල, when you type in Tamil you get தமிழ், when you type Greek you get Ελληνικά.
If you don't have a such a keyboard driver installed, then there are web applications which translate keyboard strokes, say in a Latin keyboard, and convert then in to unicode in the target language. Example https://sinhalaunicode.gishan.net/write. Another example is the Google translator https://translate.google.com. Select the target language, say Sinhala, in the left box and type "Singlish". You will see the result immediately in Sinhala unicode alphabet.
