My plant is growing very tall but doesn’t really have any new leaves growing? And how do you repot to a bigger pot? This is my first monsteria.

Hi there! Repotting comes down to the roots. If there’s more roots than soil, it’s time for a repot in a chunky aroid mix. The roots like oxygen. Also, with this plant it looks like it needs a lot more light.
It looks like a young Monstera deliciosa that’s stretching for light, so the tall growth with fewer new leaves is usually more about light and maturity than the pot itself. When you repot (I think current one is fine though, like it a bit more snug), just go one pot size up, keep the stem at the same depth, use a chunky aroid mix, and give it brighter light because that’s what really helps monstera put out stronger leaf growth!
