Tyrande is a ***** to heal if people don't interrupt the Stardust and keep standing in the Moonlance, or whatever the stun thing is called.
Jaina is hilariously easy, as is Sylvanas if you know how to move out of stuff on the ground and kill the marked target. The Tauren leader guy is tough if you don't/can't dispel the debuff. It's mildly annoying if people have low DPS and he breaks all the platforms (protip: he drops a totem which can be thrown back at him for massive damage and a stun).
Those are the only bosses in there, right? Jaina, Tyrande, Sylvanas and Tauren guy.
Murozond/Nozdormu is easy as well, if you have decent DPS and someone knows when the use the hourglass. Rule of thumb: use it if someone dies or at four/five stacks of the debuff (that everyone receives). Unless the tank pops cooldowns or has sicko gear, five stacks will bring him dangerously low on the next breath hit. Since the hourglass resets all cooldowns when used (except pet cooldowns, for some reason), there's no reason not to use it a lot.
Even with good interrupts, there's a lot of movement for the healer on Tyrande (unless you stand in the water and eat a double-cast-time debuff). Sylvanas has several abilities that will randomly target someone other than the tank, while Baine is a tank and spank, and Jaina you just have to dodge the ice blades and stomp on the flare cores.
As for actually learning the encounters, it's pretty easy. You ask before the pull. If you wipe, you try and figure out what went wrong. Reading the dungeon journal never hurts. In all the HoTs that I've run, people have been mostly understanding. If you get someone that wants to be a douche, ignore them.
My pally had 355ish iLevel when I ran him through all the HoT instances, and the only time we almost wiped was at the end of WoE because no one killed the two debilitators keeping Tyrande from killing the adds. On my shaman, who was maybe 358, the only time we died was on Tyrande when no one was interrupting her big AoE. On Arcurion, I had to throw down my Spirit Link totem. It really wasn't that bad.
