Depends on the friend how frequently I find mistakes in their English.
I'm not suggesting he actively seek out people to speak to and have them correct his grammar. It just seemed you were suggesting as a friend you shouldn't correct the grammar of a friend learning your language. I disagree with that and was giving my personal experience. At his point of study I would most certainly suggest listening more than speaking. But I would also hope that native speakers would correct bad habits they hear from any learner so they don't develop those habits further.
