A lot of good suggestions so far. Here are a couple of my favorites:

1) There is not perfect answer to this question. The training+learning method should be tailored to the individual student. It absolutely must be a fun experience for her or it won't be worth a nickel.

2) The dice are neither her friend nor her enemy. They are merely a vehicle which must be ridden no matter where they take her. Do not give human characteristics to dice -- they neither deserve them nor want them.

3) Making the right play is what matters. Wins are a (dependent) result of making the right play, not the other way around.
