First thing that I see, it looks like she steps in the bucket when she strides but it is hard to tell. Second looks to be too out in front at contact. Let it get in a little. Maybe her wrist are rolling into contact, just hard to tell with this video.

For starters, her attack angle is wrong/backwards, resulting in an overly upward swing path. Back shoulder shoulder should be higher than front at max load/toe touch. Swing/tilt (the actual degree dependent on pitch height and location) will reverse that relationship between swing and contact....see below.

at load, wrong angle:

vs.

at load, correct angle:

then at contact, reversed:
