Never done it before. If I buy an Android tablet eg Samsung Galaxay 10.1, will it be easy? What are the steps I need to take?

It's really easy to do and only takes a few seconds to setup.
The settings you need are in Settings > More Settings > Portable Hotspot. Slide the switch to turn it on, you may get a popup warning you about switching WiFi on, just tap ok. That's basically it. If you now click on the Portable Hotspot option it will show you the hotspot name and password so you can connect your devices (Samsung Tab 10.1, or any WiFi device) to your phone. Connecting a tablet to your phone is the same process as connecting it to any other WiFi network.
Obviously make sure mobile data is switched on, and note that any data you use across tethered devices comes out of your regular monthly allowance.
Hope that helps.
