Not digging the mage(class advice)

I tried a mage and I liked the caster aspect, but I did not like the lack of survivability/inability to aggro multiple mobs since I mostly solo.(I only got to twenty) I tried both frost and arcane, but neither made much of a difference. Is there another class that I could play that still has a good portion of casting but more survivability?

It's not so much the fact I can't kill mobs fast, id be fine if it took 3 min a mob. My problem is that I can't survive that long, (corpse runs suck) and when I pull two mobs I almost always die horribly. Would you have any advice if I kept my Mage to increase survivability? At twenty I have already had like 20+ corps runs(its not cool!)

Kite. use Frost Nova, Cone of Cold, and Sheep to maintain distance and deal damage.

What does your frost spec look like, and what spells are you using?
At level 20 does it look something like
this
?
Are you starting at max range, with 3 or 4 frostbolts, and if needed frost nova - strafe to max range - more frostbolts?

Yeah man what everyone else said, I am leveling a Mage now and for me its not been that easy to solo so I have been questing and running the LFD as well. I do like him a lot though :) What I have realized is I really have to size up what I am about to do before I attack. I just can't rush in there like I have plate or I'm on my Boomkin.
@hossk5 When you get Innervate on your boomer you will barely ever need to drink again.

wouldn't ele shamans have more survivability not less?
And I think I am going to take your advice, b4 when I was ice, i would only use frost bolt 1ce and then proceed to fireball/arcane missiles plus i didn't put any points into frostbolt. Worst of all i am a forsaken mage and in the starting area no-one is sheepable
