When ever I teach somebody once they're in the shooting position I get them to push their elbow back.
Once they get away from the idea of using their bicep to pull, using the back muscles comes automaticaly.
I find getting them to do this without a bow and using my hand for resistance ie push my hand with your elbow does the trick.
Hope my take on it may be useful.
