Where is he going?
Tell him to study study study. Shoot for 100% on the writtens. Makes the practical easier when the Examiner sees you know the book work. As for the flying part, tell him smooth and accurate is what counts. A pilot who is smooth but sloppy or accurate but harsh is not what anyone is looking for. Also tell him to get a tailwheel sign off. Being able to fly a tail dragger well does make you a better pilot.
