Straight arm pull - correcting

With a swimmer that is using a rather straight arm pull, at least to the point where the hand is under the shoulder/the arm is vertical, what sorts of drills or focus points will help them move to/practice more of a high elbow/bent elbow style beyond just explaining/showing them the high elbow pull?

    it's a bad habit of eamon sullivan's. i talk to his biomechanist every once in a while. below is a conversation we had about this very thing. What I gathered from that exchange is that you have an irrational hang-up about the windmill stroke, and someone who actually works with Sullivan thinks it's fine.
