question for Mac people

My boss is an elderly greek man who it horribly confused by technology.
He wants to be able to check his e-mail, and asked me to explain it to him.
(because right now we go through his e-mail, print the stuff that he needs to know about, and fax it to him at whichever of his homes he is at)
I need a bit of info about mac software and what it looks like (so I can say "click on the button up on the left that has a picture of a magnifying glass" kind of thing)
So I need to know
1) what is the web browser called and how do you open it?
2) how do I set up a bookmark?
3) how does he use his bookmarks?
The end goal is for me to set up bookmarks for his office and personal e-mail accounts and get the passwords saved, and explain to him in VERY simple terms how to use them.
I'm pretty good at explaining tech-stuff to non-tech people but I'm almost entirely Windows-based. His son has tried but he has absolutely NO pateince and as is typical for families they end up arguing about something totally unrelated to what they are trying to do.
