Sorry, but I don't follow what you mean when you say "Click on the ¶ symbol on the Home tab." There is a "home" key and a "Tab" ky, but not a Home tab.

Default Home tab

He means, in Word, not on the keyboard. In Word, with the Ribbon showing, the Home tab is furthest left. In the Paragraph section (third from left), you'll see the backwards P. Click on that and your symbols will disappear.

Best,

Or, on the keyboard press Ctrl-* (Ctrl-Shift-8)

See Non-printing display characters explained
Once you know what they mean you may want to have them displayed more often than not. They make it much easier to figure out why your page looks like it does when you print it.
