for your knees dipping think of keeping your chin up. not to much but make yourself look down on the ball and try not to move your head during swing. For the left arm straight id stick your right arm out straight at shoulder height Then hold your club with your left hand and take swings and on the downswing it makes you straighten your left arm out. oh and don’t expect great control over the club to be able to hit the ball with just your left arm. Aim will be way off but the drill will still work…

The main reason that people break down their left arm on the backswing is because they have not made a big enough shoulder turn. Then to compensate and get the club to parallel they have to break down the left elbow. Keep your head up, as the first answer mentioned, and increase your shoulder turn, you may need to do exercises that increase your flexibility, and you will be able to keep your left arm from breaking down.
Incidentally, there is a thing called the X factor in a golf swing, it is the ratio of shoulder turn to hip turn on the back swing, in other words, the greater you can turn your shoulders as compared to your hips on the takeaway, the more power you will generate. So, turn your shoulders more on the takeaway, leave your hips quiet, and you will have a firmer left arm, and you will increase your driving distance.
