Pan-sear your burritos shut.

If you are still having a hard time, a thin layer of cheese to form a crust seal never fails

At work we just lick one edge of the tortilla like an envelope before we serve it

Cheese in the seam or cheese in pan and burrito on top?

Depends on the type of burrito and ingredients. For breakfast burritos I put cream cheese in them, and then smear a bit on the inside seam and it works well to glue it shut. For a texmex style burrito you could use a bit of refried beans, or sour cream. If you're wearing your burrito you can just sprinkle a bit of shredded cheese of any kind in the seam and when the cheese melts it'll hold it closed.

If I'm wearing the burrito, I'll usually just hold it shut!
