Alternate Eb/Bb

Hello all!

Today in my lesson, my teacher advised me to get to know and practice the alternate Eb/Bb for my chromatic scales and a particular orchestral excerpt. This is the little sliver key in the left hand under the 2nd finger hole.
I have NEVER used this key before and find it (at least at the moment) very hard to wrap my fingers and brain around. He said that most professional clarinetists use this fingering rather than the "D with the lowest side key" one. I was just curious as to whether this was true? Thoughts??

Thanks!
Heidi
