Yikes. A few pointers to help you on your way:

(1) Use the "cookie-cutter" spec - http://www.wowhead.com/?talent#hVhhVZhbxIoxdIhusRuVo Your current spec is a mashing together of pretty mediocre talents and a skipping of the important ones, specifically those in the Elemental tree. Your glyph should be: Feral Spirit, Windfury, Stormstrike.

(2) Ditch the fast off-hand. Daggers for off-hands are terrible for enhancement shaman because of the way that Flametongue works. Your weapon imbues should be: Windfury on MH and Flametongue on your OH. Even if you have to go to a significantly "lower DPS" weapon with a much slower weapon speed (2.6 or so), do it.

(3) Stop gemming for agility. Agility is point-for-point subpar as compared to AP. Replace all Agi gem and enchants with their AP counterparts.

There's a start.

Edit: By the way, I neglected to read the first part of your post. Please consider all reference to "you" to "your wife." Apologizes for this.

On top of Inertius' advice, I have this to say:

Tell your wife that she does not have to match gem colors to their socket colors. The only reason to match colors is for the socket bonus.
There's no reason to have all these gems with stam values in them (Okay, well, she needs two blue to keep her meta active. One of them should be prismatic)

And she's below hit cap. She needs 13% (340 rating) if she regularly is in a raid with a shadow priest or a boomkin. Otherwise, she needs 16% (419 rating).

Try to do H Daily, vault, and whatever T9 raids she can do as often as possible. There is a nice trinket with a good boatload of hit on it

Big thing with enhance that $%^&ed me off... your dps will really go up with improved gear. Only focus for +hit +expertise until they cap. Guy above says the right trinket to have for an insane increase. Titanium chain for your offhand weapon would help until you replace the dagger, then titanuim chain new offhand. Cheap and easy +hit.

After hit/expertise... go for attack power, don't gem for stamina/intel. You should have to increase your life, improved gear will have enough on it, with shamanistic rage, you also shouldn't ever have mana problems.

You dps it stunted right now because you have to focus for hit, when your hit capped, the extras on the gear with increase how hard you hit.

Think you fixed your tree after posting this and your glyphs. You should have better dps now from those.

Do H toc every day, build emblems of conquest for gear, just from those 2 things, you should get easy replacements.
