Any suggestion to make sure you're driving far enough from the curb?

My 15-year-old is learning to drive (in the US). He's having a lot of trouble making sure the car isn't too close to cars or the curb on the right (passenger) side. Every few minutes I have to remind him that he's too close on the right side. Does anyone have a suggestions on what he could do to prevent this?
This happens on both streets with lane markers and residential streets with no lane markers. The car's alignment is good.
I've been driving for decades, and I'm not sure what to suggest to help him get better with this. I (and I imagine most drivers) have a pretty good unconscious ability to know where the right side of the car is. (The times I've driven a car with right-hand drive in countries that drive on the left, I did initially have the same issue with the left side of the car, but I was able to adjust pretty quickly.)
