So I take it that your thumb is too thin to catch the register touch piece with the "upper left corner" when flexed?
There is sooooo much we can do with angles of approach (wrist straight or bent; wrist turned one way or the other; fingers straighter or more curved; fingers angled pointing down across the clarinet or perpendicular or even pointing up) so I think maybe just getting out of the box of some pre-conceived hand/finger position can be quite helpful.
And that brings me back to your teacher's suggestion to stick with one position. I personally find it helpful to have a specific posture that works with ALL fingerings and situations that you can possibly imagine.........but you need to FIND that position.
Here is an example of a player who does this very obvious "locking in" to a position (also an interesting lesson on faster tonguing technique):
