Make sure you return the tennis ball to the other side of the court.

I would reduce the tension in the net so that it is easier to hit the ball over the net. I would strongly recommend that the person finds a hitting partner where all they do is practice getting the ball over the net to an area that is easy to return it. Next, get a bunch of balls and practice serving lightly over the net with the focus being on accurately getting the ball into the square without incurring a foot fault. Finally, practice hitting the ball off a wall which things bounce off easily. This will develop basic hitting skills.

One thing that tennis beginners are not aware of is how long it takes to master tennis. So a good tip is to be patient and not focus on the outcome rather enjoy the learning experience. Keep the strokes simple without any special loops or top spins at the the beginning. Play the ball deep, choose a direction and try to repeat the same shot many times.
