I am shortly to teach LaTeX to freshman Maths students.
As I recall, TUG used to sell a number of videos,
with Don Knuth & others explaining TeX.
I wonder if they are available still?
(I couldn't find any mention of them in recent TUGboats.)

Also, does anyone know of any other TeX/LaTeX teaching aids?
Eg did anyone ever write a Unix "learn" script for TeX?
