I would take a picture of a white piece of paper and see if it is still present. If it is, maybe put another lens on and do the same thing just to verify that it is the sensor.

Yes, stopped down. Take two photos, slightly shifting the frame. If there are spots and they do not move (in relation to the frame), they are likely on the sensor, with a smaller probability they are on the lens.

Unless he is focusing on the inside of the lens, he's not going to see spots on the glass.

How do I focus inside the lens? Sorry, I just don't know how to do that.
