In my case, we started working on landings the very first lesson. My
third lesson was focused completely on skills needed for landing
(stalls, simulated pattern over a corn field, and actual landings
including a go-around). By five hours I was doing touch & go's.

This is a very high standard for a newbie. I think it would be better
to tell him/her about the guy who spent a thousand dollars learning
how to taxi the airplane, 50 hours to solo, 100 hours to check flight.
Then, when he/she beats the benchmark, he/she will feel very chuffed.
