It is a lot easier to find work as a Spanish teacher, there are many schools that need some one to teach from grades 1-12. There are fewer places to teach on university level.
In conferences for language teachers that I have been to, one can be a teacher without knowing very much Spanish.

I am not sure of the pro's and cons of each (sorry), but I guess you could ask yourself, who would you rather be teaching, Middle and High School Students or College Students?
