Start the note, then move your jaw up and down to alter the pitch to produce the vibrato. It's a variation of the "taw-ee-ah" you should be using to do lip slurs; you move your jaw rapidly to produce variations in the pitch of the same note, as opposed to using the syllable to slur up and down from one note to another.

A mirror is a useful teaching aid for this, I suppose.

Or, drive to New Jersey and take a lesson with me.

Seriously, this is the kind of thing you acquire from you private instruction - find a teacher.
