Skills
I'm offering
I am a driven, enthusiastic and meticulous Spanish copy editor and proofreader with 12 years of experience reviewing contents and ensuring the high quality of diverse types of materials, such as fiction books, magazines, audio books, Spanish course books and contents on digital platforms. I also have 4 years experience of teaching Spanish as a foreign language (primary school, GCSE, A-levels an adults).
I collaborate regularly in the production of various Spanish learning resources with some well-known publishing companies. In addition to proofreading and copyediting, I have experience as Editorial Lead, where my excellent eye for detail and organisation skills are essential to provide consistency, high quality standard of language to the materials and to ensure that the manuscripts meet all the requirements.
I am a good team player with excellent communication skills gained after four years of teaching Spanish, but can also work well independently. Being a very well organised person and my ability to prioritise tasks have been key to ensure that deadlines are always met.
