You can probably play higher on 888 and party poker as they are softer.
$50-$100 budget each month, 5 tourney in 2 night play time each week. most important he doesn't want to grind, he wants to dedicate his budget to learn the game. low buy-in low quality game high variance more tilt. $1 buy-ins are waste of time. it is better to play with regs between $5 and $10 deepstacks. if he plays seriously without a bankroll management, with a support of decent budget he can survive long enough to learn.
I assume he is not a beginner.
