I am afraid I have to disagree with part of your answer. He is playing a trumpet method book? Then, on a BBb tuba, he should use trumpet fingerings (and he will learn treble cleff Bb Bass fingerings while he is at it). The Eb paradigm, you cited, produces concert pitch only if the part being played is Eb treble. Granted, the "play as bass, add 3 flats" gag will work but it won't produce concert pitch in any of the horns mentioned.
