/The Elements of Style/, by Strunk and White, is recommended in your case.

The least you can do is to suggest an appropriate book to improve his
English rather than a book aimed at proficient English speakers.
What TOEFL course teaches the spelling "u" for "you", "4" for "for", to
lower-case the pronoun "I"?
What makes you think the person's native language is not English? I see no
evidence for that assertion.
Unless you count "l33t" as a non-English language, which I might endorse.
Actually, I see no evidence the OP was asking a question. I parse the message
as "I wanted you to know which book is good for JSP/J2EE/servlet beginners",
but then they never told us.
Unless someone explicitly apologizes for their lack of command of English, I
will hold it a given that posting in English implies the most basic
familiarity with English syntax and orthography.
As to the point of the recommended book being too advanced, you are right.
Next time I will recommend /Dick and Jane/ and a subscription to /My Weekly
Reader/.
