Open up your Corolla hood. Locate the belt tensioner on the passenger side of the engine. There is a fake nut (casted in to the tensioner, note: do note turn the rel nut) that you use to release the tension on the belt.

Use a 19 mm socket and wrench on the fake nut and pull towards the front of the car to release the tension. You can use a long pipe over the wrench to increase your leverage making it easier to pull, keeping tension off the belt tensioner, take the serpentine belt off and re-route new one
