About these series

Welcome to Glow Up!

Glow Up! is a secondary-level English course that combines engaging content with collaborative learning. It uses contemporary topics connected to students’ digital lives, motivating them to communicate naturally and meaningfully.

The course is built around tightly structured lessons that introduce new vocabulary and language through accessible reading and listening texts. It supports learners of different levels while also helping them develop key life skills, and it provides extra resources so teachers can adapt lessons easily to meet students’ needs.

Language is presented in context through a variety of text types, with video tasks opening each unit as well as each CLIL and Culture lesson. This gives students exposure to authentic communication and encourages curiosity and motivation.

Glow Up! also focuses on developing key competencies for success in the modern world. Culture pages help students explore global themes, strengthen cross-cultural understanding, and complete mini-projects more independently. CLIL sections integrate content from other school subjects (such as biology and history) while using English and unit language.

The course includes sustainability through the Agenda 2030 goals, encouraging students to reflect on their role in building a better future. Each Learning Situation follows four stages (Discuss, Plan, Share, and Extend), supporting project work and self-assessment.

Finally, Glow Up! offers Cambridge exam practice (A2 Key for Schools for Levels 1–2 and B1 Preliminary for Schools for Levels 3–4) teacher resources, worksheets, audio/video materials, evaluation templates, and tests. The course also promotes inclusivity, representing diverse backgrounds and abilities to support respect and cultural awareness in the classroom.
