Keep your AE stun loaded. You should have your best AOE stun loaded at all times (in some situations, you'll want more than 1 loaded, but always have the highest duration one loaded at a minimum). If something breaks root/mez etc, stun the mob, walk away a little during the spell cooldown time, then CC the mob as soon as the cooldown is done. This is applicable for charm breaks too. Careful not to break any other mezzes you've already cast though, since the AE stun will hit any nearby mobs you've mezzed already. Get comfortable with the range on the AOE stun because if you aren't used to using it, it's larger than you think and once again you'll end up goofing up and breaking other mezzes you've cast. Ditto when you're using it to interrupt a caster.

If you can stay alive while CCing in a low/mid level dungeon, you're ahead of the game since the higher level you get, the larger the percentage of people you'll group with that correctly assist.

AE stun doesn't break mez. Maybe I'm reading that section of your post wrong, but I don't want any new chanters to get bad impressions of a super-important spell.

Any chanter who knows what to mez and when is already ahead of the curve on this server [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
You'll generally want to keep root and ae stun up (I often root mezzed mobs so I don't end up tanking them later with a warrior in the group). Keep a utility slot plus charm and tash, and then whatever spells are useful in that group. Maybe AE mez, maybe another AE stun or a slow.
Just by grouping, you should pick up the basic how-to of the class as long as you come in with some understanding of what all of the spells do. Most of the dungeuns before the mid 30s are easy enough that you can learn the class in peace and be ready for the more difficult camps later on.
