How the landings are achieved will also be dependant on the type of plane that you are learning with. Is it a basic trainer with lots of dihedral? A mid-wing with a straight wing etc. Some planes will drop like a brick once airspeed lowers too much; some float. Is it a trike gear or a tail dragger?

How planes approach the field will help to determine what type of speed is needed, when to apply the elevator and how much etc.

In addition to the above posts, it's important to know how your plane reacts at slow speed. You might want to try bringing the plane across the field at a higher altitude and slow it down to see the reaction. Enough height will give you some time to react and compensate. This will give you an idea of what to expect (though not 100%) from the plane at stall speed.

Best of luck
