he asked me 1.what pool should he use? 2.what software he should use and some additional information about this. precautions and guides are welcome too

You should out a bunch of YouTube videos, and  there are mining calculators there. So, you can see if mining will be profitable for you.
To be honest mining will be not profitable anymore with that specs so it's better if he just save some extra money and buy S9 soon because i think it's one of mining hardware which you can make some good profit but for sure that mining hardware is expensive. So if you don't have much money better to find better ways for you.
