If the guitar is a classical guitar you’ll want to stick with classical/nylon strings. If it’s a steel-string guitar, I tend to hear the most positive things about Elixir Nanoweb and D’Addario XS. I started using the Elixirs and then switched to the D’Addarios and love them. I change them every 2-4 months (and play ~20-30m most days).
For beginngers, I’d suggest starting with ‘custom light’ or ‘extra lights’ which will be easier on the fingers and then maybe work your way up to the lights.
