Oxidation state of carbons in organic molecules is counted like this: starting with 0, count down -1 if bonded to a hydrogen, count up +1 if bounded to an oxygen, no impact on the number if bonded to another carbon.
Using this rule, carbon in methane is -4, methanol is -2, formaldehyde is 0, formic acid is +2, etc.
By the same rule, the oxidation state of C1 to C6 in glucose is +1, 0, 0, 0, 0, -1.
