Hi Tell your friend to practice lip trils slowly every day for a minute. If people practice it too much will be very frustrating... I you just play minute, but every single day, the results will arrive sooner.
For example playing scales, and make a small and slow lip trill on the 2nd degree of the scale, before resolving might also help. just my 2cents Have a nice practice!
