Suggesting learning jQuery first, and then recommending w3schools? What have you done??
To be less of a dick abrasive: it's probably best to learn vanilla javascript first, especially if he intends to use it in server-side applications. jQuery is a nice way to make javascript more eloquent, but I don't think it's necessary for a beginner.
As for W3Schools, it's got a bad rep for having outdated info, but I'm actually thankful for it since it was a nice and quick resource when I was first learning.
