To encrypt and decrypt with the Vigenere Cipher you can use either a Caesar Cipher wheel or you can use a grid like the one below.
Some people find the grid very confusing, and it can be easy to make a mistake but some people prefer it. Below is the grid so that you try using it yourself, and there is also a version of the grid that you can print out if you find this easier.
