Make sure your student is taking sufficient mouthpiece in her mouth, and that her air flow is pushed rather than choked.

She is probably apprehensive about the high notes and constricts her air flow.

Reed.mouthpiece are also impediments if poorly chosen. I recommend a Theodore Johnson TJ1 mouthpiece and a sufficient Gonzalez FOF reed. Or get a B45 Vandoren mouthpiece. Both are suitable intermediate mouthpieces at a reasonable price.

Nasty observation: I think folks who recommend the B45 as a professional grade mouthpiece are nuts.  :)
