She used fire dust imbued in her clothing to do all the 'magic' you are talking about. When she sends glass against Amber, she actually kicks up dirt and uses her skill at manipulating fire dust to turn it into glass. We know this because Ruby said her stealth suit was imbued with dust, and her red dress glows in exactly the same way when she makes the glass against Amber.

When she creates the swirling red fire things under Amber, she was using her arrows as a conduit. She didn't use her arrows as a conduit against Ruby and Glynda in the first episode though, because by that time she was already part Fall Maiden and didn't need to.

Everything else she does is pretty standard and can be explained away with "proper Huntress training, or perhaps private tutors".



Also, Cinder is only a few years older than Weiss, Yang and Blake. Monty confirmed this. Summer died when Yang was about 7, so Cinder would have been in the 10-13 range at best. That's too young to be Summer's killer.

Have a picture of the dust glow her dress gives off when she creates the glass against Amber.
