Way back when I was a CFI, one thing I would do with a student who was having trouble with landing picture was to perform a landing attitude demo. This is accomplished by adding a little power in the flare and flying down the runway in the landing attitude inches off the ground. If the runway is long enough, you can touch down intermittently (keeping the power in) just to get a feel for where the wheels are. As you get near the end of the runway, apply power and off you go back into the pattern. I would fly one, then have the student fly one. Not recommended with any strong winds. Check with your instructor and see if he/she would be willing to try this.
