Question Hamster screeched at me!

Hi everyone! Can someone tell me what am I doing wrong? I have been trying to tame my hamster for a little over a week by placing treats on my fingers and placing my hand in her cage. Mostly runs away from my hand and hides in a corner. Occasionally, she runs over my hand but never accepts any treats. Last night I tried to do some bathtub bonding, but she kept running away from me trying to hide behind the toys that I had placed in the bathtub. She kept getting stuck between the toy and the bathtub wall and whenever I helped her by removing the toy so she could run again, she screeched at me. She also tried to chew the towel I had laid in there and when I lightly tugged at the towel to make her let go of it she screeched again! Does this mean I am moving too fast? Should I slow down? Should I not bring her out of her cage yet?
