Everything is still starting with the top half. The hips should fire before the hands move. The hands are the last thing that move.
I would shift the drill focus to the bottom half. Start by having her take a stride to toe touch, pause, toss the ball, lead with the hip, and swing. The pause is for the purpose of the drill.
She is only using her top half, and even then it's mostly arms dipping down to reach the ball. Let the ball come in without reaching out for it (disconnection). Tell her to keep the hands at launch position until the very last instant.
But focus, for now, mostly on the bottom half. See the thread Megan 1-Tee. There's some good info there and video.
Keep using the check-swing drill, also.
