If your teacher is not teaching you to breathe out, they are not a good teacher. (Sorry to be blunt.) I presume they are a general woodwind teacher rather than an oboe specialist?

Basically you just want to practise breathing out as quickly and forcibly as possible before breathing in again. First you should do an out and then an in at the same time - doing an out, carrying on playing and then doing an in is more advanced so can come later. When I teach, I write an o for an out breath sign on students' music, next to a tick for an in breath, to remind them to do both. (I do it on my own music too, out of habit, but it's useful as well!)

Breathing out before you breathe in is counterintuitive, as your body is telling you to breathe in. But you MUST do it!
