Choosing between a video course for Algebra 1 and a logic program with a teacher's manual is more than a price comparison. Whether you are assembling a language education study toolkit or just adding a focused course, the real question is which subject your student needs next and whether you prefer video-only or video-with-manual lessons. Both products here come as DVD courses, but they differ in focus, format, and condition.
Quick Verdict
For a student who needs intensive algebra support and wants a straightforward video tutor, the Math Tutor DVD Algebra 1 Tutor Vol. 2 is the better fit. For a family or co-op that wants a logic curriculum with a teacher's manual, the Canon Press Introductory Logic set at $15.00 gives you both the video course and a printed guide.

Product Notes
Math Tutor DVD The Algebra 1 Tutor Vol 2 6-Hour Video Course 2-Disc DVD 2011
This 2-disc DVD set packs six hours of algebra instruction into a case listed in Very Good condition. The format is DVD, with a release year of 2011 and a studio credit of Math Tutor DVD. For a student who needs to revisit algebra concepts, the 6-hour run time offers plenty of video lessons to work through. The main limitation is the video-only approach: the course is delivered through the DVD, so you will be engaged with the screen rather than a book. If you prefer a printed guide, you may want to consider a course that includes one.
Canon Press Introductory Logic 5th Edition Teacher's Manual and DVD Video Course
This set combines a DVD video course with a paperback teacher's manual, and it is a Teacher's Edition. That makes it a better match for a parent or instructor who wants to guide a middle or high school student through introductory logic. This is a used set: the manual has highlights and notes, and the DVDs show wear. If you are comfortable with that, this is a practical way to bring logic instruction into your study routine. The limitation is that the manual already contains notes, so this copy will not deliver a pristine look.
Final Choice by Use Case
Choose the Algebra 1 Tutor Vol. 2 if your student is specifically working on algebra and benefits from watching a tutor solve problems step by step. Choose the Canon Press Introductory Logic set if you are teaching logic to a middle or high school student and want instructor support in the course.
