Practice scales in many articulation patterns. I like Taffanel and Gaubert Daily Exercises #4. Use a metronome! When playing two slurred notes I like to say Tee-Yah so I don't rush or swallow the second note. It is important to practice quick articulations on changing notes so that you can carefully coordinate the tongue with the fingers and air. Remember that the articulation is produced by SMALL motions of the tongue and not by a moving embouchure.
