You can also check some of the online courses available from various
universities and places such as edX or Udacity (to name a couple). MIT has
something called OpenCourseware that is self-guided versions of some of
their courses and are free to use. They have course 6.092 with the title of
"Java Preparation for 6.170". There will be plenty of other courses and
tutorials on Java out there you can find if the MIT OCW course is not
suitable for your son.
