I'm not a teacher, but as an adult student of guitar I'd recommend that you do a combination of things....i.e. a bit of theory and scales a few chords and some songs.
While I think the theory and basics are important, if the students doesn't feel like they're making progress or doing something they want to do then that's a negative!
I don't know how articulate/interested this student is but maybe find out what music he is interested in (are there songs he wants to play?) and then start with an easy one and work from there
So maybe spend half the time on theory and basics and stuff and the other half on songs...
That would be my recommendation.
