Khan Academy does exactly what you described. Each video is short and on a
very specific topic. The videos are also just one voice drawing at a board
to simulate a personal tutoring session. The key is that Salman Khan is
good at explaining math so it makes sense to tap experts who could explain
a topic clearly and concisely. The illusion of a 1:1 session I believe is
key too.

If you have not seen the Khan's Ted Talk, it's  provides good food for
thought. He talks about classroom flipping and how it supports
differentiated learning.
