The simple english page for string theory has a grammatical mistake (Today's scientists want a unified field theory that also is explains matter.)
String theory tries to use math to explain the four known fundamental forces—gravitation, electromagnetism, strong nuclear force, weak nuclear force—together in one theory. This tries to solve the problems of having both classical physics and quantum physics.
Einstein wanted a unified field theory, a single theory to explain the fundamental forces. Today's scientists want a unified field theory that also is explains matter. This is called the search for a theory of everything (TOE). The most famous theory used as a TOE is called superstring theory. It says there are 6 higher dimensions as well as the four dimensions of Height, Length, Width and Time).
Some superstring theories seem think that it is about the geometry of space. This idea is a big part of a theory called M-theory. Many string theorists believe that M-theory explains the universe and might explain how other universes, if they exist, are as part of the "multiverse". M theory/supergravity theory has 7 higher dimensions and the four dimensions of Height, Length, Width and Time.
