Just make sure you got your basics correct and focus on that and practice to be consistent on it. if you know you're doing it right then don't constantly change your swing.
Remove unwanted movement unnecessary in the swing.

I usually sing a song when Im up to bat bacause it keeps me relaxed and helps me not think too much. Practice is when you need to think about what you need to fix not during the game. By game time, you know what to do. Make sure your bat head follows the knob, meaning keep your bat head level. Dont take too much of a step. And the most important thing is to believe you can do it. Once you have confidence, you got it all

Take 100 practice swings every day!

When you are getting ready to bat you should load, meaning to being your bat back towards your shoulder. When you swing you should come in so that your arms are at 90 degree angles, also called the power V. When you make contact with the ball you need to push the bat through it. Most people just roll their wrists instead of pushing through. With the feet, when you step, step when the pitcher releases, it helps get your timing down. Make sure that you step in a straight line towards the pitcher. When you are following through make sure you squish the bug with your back foot. Some people, including me, drag their back foot which helps with power. Make sure that your front foot doesn't move beyond taking that step. Make sure you follow through with both hands on the bat to ensure power. Good luck! I hop this helps

There is also a soft toss where the person tossing it, stands in back, to keep your head down, and to also, get your timing down, it is really fun, and it also forces you to use your hips, and really get that POWER behind your swing.
