In my opinion, FAT16:
1. It's more simple than other file systems, ever simpler than FAT12.
2. Unlike FAT12, FAT16 is still in use (in USB flash drives, I mean).
3. Unlike ext/ext2 and custom file systems, it is supported virtually by every device.
I'm not saying that it's a perfect (or even a good) file system but you asked a file system for "beginners."

Hi,
My opinion is FAT and/or ISO9660. They're both relatively simple, and both remain useful after you implement a high performance/secure native file system later.
Cheers,
