When you flare, smoothly reduce power to idle while simultaneously lifting the nose slightly and gradually.

Also don't forget to use your flaps ;)

Slow down.

Use flaps.

Slow down.

Just before runway.

Pull back, at stall speed (Just remember, this has to be literally a couple of feet above the runway, not a couple of hundred!).

Then.......

Hope for a soft landing!

Don't forget your spoilers, they re-direct the air to reduce the lift of the wings.
