Default hummming wheel bearing

Hello everyoue glad to be a part of this forum. I have a problem with a humming I think rear bearing that I would like to try to replace on my own. Any specific tools required hints tips would be appreciated. What has to be taken apart to get it off to take to a shop to have them press the bearing? Thanks for any help on this matter.

Finished the wheel bearing yesterday. It was $26 to have it pressed afterI removed it and took it to the shop of course. The wheel bearing was $49. Took about 2hrs to do it with all new brakes. Not too bad. I wouldn't even want to know what it would have cost at the dealership. Thanks again everyone.
