Keep it simple. Four things I would tell a brand new official: (1) don't rush; (2) eye contact with partner before putting the ball in play; (3) call the obvious; (4) learn to watch off ball.
I probably would not tell a coach that it was my partner's first game. If a coach was riding my partner too hard, I might quietly say something like, "He's just starting out. Talk to me if you have any problems."
