Making $10 is easy or not depends on which country you are from. For some countries, entire families survive on USD1 but for other countries, it is the minimum wage for an hour.
Why only $10 a day? Why not more? In any case, forum posting and social media posting could make you at least that much per day. However, you might even be able to generate even more than that per day if you know how to evaluate your social media audience. For instance, we reach out to people who want to buy our PC performance software.

The best way to make $10 or more per day is to build a simple HTML website selling services like Facebook Headers / YoutTube Covers / Twitter Profiles. 1 pager will do it like this - http://clearwork.pw/ Then all you do is contact people on Facebook. Look for high end like Lawyers etc who have really bad graphics (you can tell the ones who DIY them). Email as many as you can per day and you will earn instantly - payment up front via PayPal. Go in cheap "ish" at around $20-$40 and outsource this to Fiverr for $5. Really simple - I have done this and made good money.

He should try joining fiverr and offer a service. Even if its something like writing an article for someone for $5, its a start. Otherwise, I'd advise him to get a part time job while he's studying - a lot of those online data entry jobs are scams, so be careful.

If he is a good writer, he can try writing for the content mill sites. These are websites that display content needed by clients, and writers of the proper level reserve the article and write it for money. Sites include textbroker, thecontentauthority, and iwriter. There are more like this, but those are the three I've written at. If he isn't a good writer, Fiverr is a good choice because you can even be creative as to the types of gigs. You can even offer content writing on Fiverr. I've personally done that with good results. This type of writing isn't necessarily difficult. If he's a college student, he can certainly handle it.
I highly recommend to create gigs on fiverr. He must figure out some things he can do for 5 dollars, and post it on fiverr.
