Michelle, I suggest that you ask your student to sing with her mouth
fully closed. More specifically, have her keep her upper teeth
touching her lower teeth and have her use her fingers to keep her
lips away form her teeth. Have her sing like this for a minute or so
on something not too difficult. Then ask her to just sing without
that ridiculous constraint. Perhaps she will feel the difference and
start to allow her mouth to open.
Good luck,
