BMX Bunny-hop Height Help

Question

Well, I recently learned how to bunnyhop but I can't jump that high yet.

Here's a picture on how my jump kinda looks like:

The black line on the bottom is the ground.

As you can see, my back wheel is way lower than my front wheel. Is there any way I can remedy this?

Thanks a bunch!

Do it in two stages. First lean back and pull up on the handle bars. Then, as your coming up to the heighest point on the handlebars lift with your feet on the peddles while almost squeezing your legs together to lift the rear of the bike. Its almost like an ark rather than the entire bike going up and down at the same time.
