I agree with Donna on the not finishing part. You are pulling your hand out of the water too soon, need to finish the stroke all the way through. A good drill for this is regular Speedo type rectangular paddles but you take the wrist strap off completely, leaving only the finger strap. Then if you try and cheat your stroke by pulling your hand out early, it will pull the paddle off of your hand letting you know you need to finish more. Something my old High School coach taught me years ago....it works.
