It is essential to have a tuned instrument before you play. If you practice with strings that are not properly tuned, you may get used to hearing the incorrect pitch.
Using a metronome is also very helpful because it helps you maintain a steady tempo. It’s very common for musicians to speed up unintentionally, so practicing with a metronome will help with that issue.
