The attackers role is to start in position 2 and attack the ball. The player then transitions back to position 3 to attack the ball from there then transitions back to position 4 and attack. The player may call whatever desired attack they want in the positions. Once completed all three attacks the attacker cycles under the net and becomes the blocker in position 2. Coach must be aware that the attacker is transitioning fast enough each time. Coaching cues that are important include: Quick steps, drive up, look for seams, high contact, follow through, land knees bent, transition out.

New hitters rarely miss because of their arm. They miss because of their feet. Build a reliable approach, then time it with your setter.
When your hitter gets stuffed, five teammates standing and watching is how you lose the point. Good attack coverage turns a blocked ball into a second swing.
Coaches spend hours correcting arms in serve receive when the real fault is almost always the feet. Fix the movement and the platform fixes itself.
