Personally not a fan of rooting mobs in combat, root is a high agro spell so by doing that you're starting a vicious cycle of everytime root breaks the mob comes after you because you put so much agro into it. Then you have to root it again adding even more threat.

As Zell mentioned a much better approach is learning to manage agro, especially helpful for Shaman is that they can solo with a pet. This environment is perfect for managing threat so you can understand when to go in for slow/debuffs, when to add dmg, and how to do it without ever (or rarily ever) pulling agro on the mob. And the shaman is beafy enough that even if you slow to soon and the mob comes after you, you can absorb a few hits while your pet puts in more threat to take the mob back.
