Spanish term or phrase: Corrector Internacional de Textos en Lengua Española
¡Hola! Estoy cursando la carrera de corrector en Fundación Litterae (Argentina).
El título que obtendré es el siguiente:
Corrector Internacional de Textos en Lengua Española

¿Cómo podría traducirlo al inglés? (me gustaría incluir la información en mi currículum)

Propongo:
- International Proofreader for the Spanish Language
- Spanish Copy Editor and Proofreader

¡Gracias!

Explanation:
Or proofreader.

I think the more literal translation is a bit of a mouthful, and 'international' doesn't really add anything to the meaning.

Thanks! Your translation sounds quite natural, I like that. And I agree with the fact that "international" could be easily omitted.

As the program includes training on both areas, I decided on "Spanish-language Copy Editor & Proofreader".

International Spanish Language Text Reviser/Reviewer


Explanation:
"LANGUAGE REVIEWER" vs "LANGUAGE REVISER"
Both 'language reviser' and 'language reviewer' are correct phrases, but they are used in slightly different contexts. 'Language reviser' is more commonly used to refer to someone who revises or edits language content, while 'language reviewer' is used to describe someone who reviews or evaluates language content.

  • The African Court on Human and Peoples' Rights seeks to recruit an English Language Reviser, to provide the Court with specialized services

Asker: Thanks for your contribution! I went for another option because I'm not sure whether "Text" is redundant... Anyway, your topic Reviser vs. Reviewer is really interesting.
