How can I change my font size?

How do I change font size on a wordpress blog without premium? I know there are probably plenty of questions like these but I can’t find an answer without people giving a bunch of CSS or HTML with no context or examples.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Are you referring only to text inside posts and pages and not Titles or Widget Headings?
Note that no changes you try out in the theme customizer aside from those such as Custom Background, Custom Header, etc. which are stated on the theme description pages in the features column (right hand side) will be visible to visitors.
If you are into fiddling about with font families, sizes and/or colors on each and every post you make by using the Text editor (HTML editor) then you can change it in the body text in posts and pages. But for changing it in Titles and widgets you need to purchase an upgrade.
These are 3 ways to change fonts on WordPress.com blogs.
(1) Changing font families, colors and size in text in posts or pages either post by post or page by page by coding into the Text ie. HTML editor. http://wpbtips.wordpress.com/2009/07/11/formatting-text-pt-5/
(2) Changing font colors in text in posts or pages either post by post or page by page using the #4 icon (Select text color – change the text color) in Row 2 the Visual editor. http://en.support.wordpress.com/visual-editor/#row-2
(3) Changing all font families, colors and sizes throughout the whole blog by purchasing an annually renewable Custom Design upgrade and using Typekit Fonts with Staff support.

Also be aware that if you have difficulty reading the text on any site on the internet you can address that easily.

I am referring to in posts or pages. I don’t know how to use the HTML editor so an example would be appreciated

If you don’t know how to use the HTML editor, you’re simply going to have to learn. The only way to do this is by custom coding every post by hand in the HTML editor.
We would need to know the size, colour, and name of the font you want to use in the body of your posts in order to give you an example.

Colour doesn’t matter nor does size for an example purpose. I assume you would just change the number 16, 32, 24 etc.

There are no assumptions when it comes to code. You either know what you are doing or you don’t.

The <font> tag specifies the font face, font size, and color of text.
The <font> tag is not supported in HTML5. Use CSS instead.
