About Beatriz

My name is Beatriz Álvaro Hernández and I have a degree in Modern Languages, with a mention in Hispanic and Literary Studies. I am currently completing the Editorial Correction Itinerary at Escuela Cursiva (Penguin Random House), where I have consolidated my knowledge of norms, editorial criteria, and text revision.

My professional experience in recent years has focused on working directly with texts from various fields. In 2020, I was part of Ediciones Beta III Milenio, where I carried out orthotypographical and stylistic correction of narrative (adult and young adult), essays, and poetry, as well as critical reading and manuscript reports, and support in text revision and translation.

Subsequently, between 2021 and 2022, I worked as a freelance proofreader for Libros Indie, focusing on the comprehensive linguistic revision of fiction manuscripts, as well as academic and essayistic texts. In parallel, I have worked on the correction of academic texts, especially Final Degree Projects.

Between 2022 and 2023, I was part of the script analysis and project development department at Morena Films, where I carried out critical reading of narrative and essayistic works for their possible audiovisual adaptation, in addition to writing synopses and development documents.

Since 2023, I have been working as a teacher of Spanish Language and Literature for Secondary Education, a role that involves continuous work with language, text correction, and the creation of didactic materials, reinforcing linguistic rigor and attention to detail daily.

Currently, I balance teaching with orthotypographical and stylistic correction work for individuals, covering fiction manuscripts, essay works, and academic texts. My professional goal is to join the publishing sector full-time.
