Global Language School taught English as a Second Language in Japan and Korea in 1974-75. Kaye Hays, Fred and Jann McGuire with input by Tokyo colleague LeRoy Willoughby. Started at the same time as a recession in the Japanese economy, so were unable to market it to corporations. Taught intensives to Christian clergy in Fukushima and Seoul. As I recall, the curriculum was based on the Academy. I still have some materials in file cabinets if you're interested.
