In addition to what the other learned people have advised....

You could try trimming slightly nose up on the approach. By this I mean so you need a bit of forward force on the control column to maintain the glide path, this will help you in the flare. Once you have mastered the art of flaring, then you can remove this nose up trim....

Its a technique often advised for bigger aircraft (eg a multi), where when you chop the power, becasue of the big airbrakes on the wing (props), the nose tends to drop...

Good luck !
