First, try it without the instrument. Have her sing "loo-loo" or "doo-doo" with her lips pursed. You will be able to see her tongue go for the open place where her lips are pursed. Then try with mouthpiece and barrel. Have her work then with one note on her clarinet. It may be best not to work on any other lesson material until the concept is grasped. Old habits may take longer to change, but it can be done. I'm working with several students now on this same issue.
