Glucose can move via two ways:

1. With the Sodium/glucose pump. As sodium is diffusing back into the cell the glucose will attach itself (co-transport) as a symporter across the membrane. The sodium is going with the gradient and the glucose is moving against its gradient. Therefore, Indirect active transport via a symporter as a co-transporter.

2. By facillitated diffusion by attaching itself to a proten carrier glucose will move with the gradient into the cell.

This means that glucose it the only molecule that can enter or leave a cell under two different transportation modes.
