(You know, I've never thought about this before, but would a male version of a governess/tutor be called a governor? Or is there really no male equivalent of a governess?)

(Well, if I'd bothered to check before thinking aloud by posting those thoughts, I would have known the answer: What is the masculine equivalent of governess?
Why don't the facts that male tutors have a much higher status than a governess and are paid a much higher wage surprise me? But we digress...)
