If your teacher has recommended the B45, get a B45. She clearly recommended this mouthpiece for a reason.
The B45 was my first "real" mouthpiece (almost 35 years ago), strongly recommended by my first private teacher (who was later my conservatory professor). I played it through two years of high school, then through college and well beyond. It's a terrific design. Don't be concerned with what might be "easier" to handle. Mouthpiece choice isn't as simple as that.
If you are a beginner, you're not yet in a position to assess mouthpieces. Once you've developed, you'll have plenty of time to try everything under the sun and make wise choices. And even then, you might find the B45 continues to serve you just fine.
Best of luck!
