@Mathi

There is nothing to do with first person or second person, if in the question He is used instead of I then also "Beside" will be the answer,
"Besides" is used to indicate "In addtion to" always.

Eg. Besides being a teacher,he is a skilled craftsman.

Besides, without the "s", tells us the location of something.

Besides, on the other hand, means “in addition, ” “in addition to, ” “moreover, ” or “as well, ” depending on context.

Here the verb indicates the first person noun (i.e)'I'. if the

word indicates the noun second person (i.e) he, it must be come

in the order of "verb+s".......
