Why is it masculine?
Maestro is masculine because it derives from Latin "magister" (master/teacher), which was inherently masculine in form; Spanish retained this grammatical gender when the word evolved through Vulgar Latin into the Romance languages. The feminine form "maestra" was later derived by adding the standard feminine suffix "-a" to the masculine base.
