I had a similar problem with one of my strikers - always going for the "Big Finish". Working on technique is the ultimate answer and will need a lot of patient observation, quality one-to-one coaching and encouraging words to get results, especially with older kids.
In the meantime for more instant results place an emphasis on "passing" the ball to the corners of the net. This will at least alleviate the immediate problem of balls blazing over the bar and in my opinion is a much more effective finishing technique anyway.
