Before giving answer let me define these two terms.
Intrinsically means from inside, affected by inner factors. Just like one feel happy to teach or exploring new ideas are fun for someone.
Extrinsically is opposite to it. It means motivated by external factors. For instance good salary can fascinate someone to teach or calamity in an area can motivate some person to become a social worker.

Intrinsically motivated infers that one is not open to change/diversity and can thus be dull and boring in class
Whilst extrinsically motivated suggests that the teacher is open to change/diversity and encourages class interaction.
One's approach to teaching/learning also indicates to possible employers the potentialities of the candidates
