The best teacher in tanking is experience so just keep playing and you will get better. Always have good awareness of what's going on. Also, you can assign a hotkey in options to toggle between nearby targets. I believe the default key is tab.

1: Flash of light ...just dont use it at a distance...
2: positioning other peoples pets is probably the last thing on your to-do list if at all while you tanking, however backstabbing pets are nice to position but still you have more important things to worry about
3: Root is your friend, a rooted target will attack the closest person to it, most classes that can root will root mobs for tanking purposes if you ask nicely
4: for the most part only worry about aggro on the main target and let the chanter/bard/ect CC the rest
5: make a macro stating what mob you are fighting (assist me on %t)
6: if a monk or dps ignores you and keeps attacking some different target than the rest of the group their death is their fault

Also that puller you are talking about seems like they dont know what they are doing, chain pulling is nice, if your group can't deal with it or kill fast enough tell them to slow the pulls or ask your cleric to stop healing them they will stop eventually or die = D
