One Texas teen bought his teacher the shoes he's always wanted, as a thank you for always being there for him. Teachers deal with a lot and it is an amazing feeling when you know it's appreciated. For one Texas teacher, his student thanked him by giving him a present he'd always dreamed of owning. Coach Thomas Walser had once causally told his student Hector Montez that he had wanted a pair of Nike Jordan 12s since he was in the 6th grade. This student decided to make his dream come true as a thank you to his teacher who he says "always kept it real." The defensive coordinator and linebackers coach at Coronado High School in Lubbock, Texas, was shock, surprised and truly delighted when his student gave him his present in class last week.  Another student filmed the moment and posted it to Twitter, where it has been retweeted over 100,000 times. Munoz told his teacher and coach,

“You told me sophomore year this is your favorite shoe and you told me your size, but you don’t even remember."

Then, he placed the shoe box on his teachers desk. The student and teacher hugged before the excited coach put his new Jordans on. Coach Walser then thanked his student again on Twitter for his brand new gift,
