Did you have a pregame with this guy? If nothing else, even a short pregame will start some dialogue especially if you've never called with someone and it might have given you a clue as to his level of experience.
I too enjoy helping less experienced officials but I have to build some rapport before I'll even try to help. Most folks don't respond well to criticism even when they ask for it. I've found it helps just to ask what they saw so they can verbalize their thoughts. Once verbalized, they can see for themselves whether it was right or not.
