That is right and that is also for me this way as coming from Europe.
It is good to look into etymology or where the word comes from:
https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/master#Etymology_1
From Middle English maister, mayster, meister, from Old English
mǣster, mæġster, mæġester, mæġister, magister (“master”), from Latin
magister (“chief, teacher, leader”), from Old Latin magester, from
Proto-Indo-European *méǵh₂s, (as in magnus (“great”)) + -ester/-ister
(compare minister (“servant”)). Reinforced by Old French maistre,
mestre from the same Latin source. Compare also Saterland Frisian
Mäster (“master”), West Frisian master (“master”), Dutch meester
(“master”), German Meister (“master”). Doublet of maestro and
magister.
