(I'm assuming your starting in second or fourth position) Take your position as if you were getting ready to turn. Check you alignment. Is your back straight and not curved? Is your rear end sticking out? Are you centered in your position (particularly fourth). Make sure your stomach is pulled in. The harder you spot, the more rotations you will be able to get. When you pull up into passe, make sure you get a high passe and pretend as you pull up you are pushing your other leg down into the floor. Also the tighter you pull your arms in, the faster you may be able to get around.
When you turn, think of yourself as a an ornament with a string in your head. That is how you want to turn. Like you are being pulled up. When you pull up into your turn, do not push yourself to give yourself more momentum, just push straight up.

keep a feeling of contact to the floor, and move your leg quicker to passe and spot!!! your arms also help you turn, also if you are turning from 4th position make sure your legs arn't too far away, they should only be a foot away at the farthest! Good luck, also ask your teacher to examine your turns now, and she can show you what allignment problems might be affecting your turns, oviously i cant see your turns to tell you exactly what you need to change,

remember to think "up" instead of concentrating on getting around. also, working on your balance will always help, so balance on releve with your leg in posse for as long as you can to improve your balance. remember to spot! that always helps. also, for a single, all you need to get the power you need is your spot, you do not need to whip your arms around. finally, as you do more turn, but your arms in to a tighter circle as you turn to keep your momentum. hope it helps!
