Just after going inside teacher had sex with American (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

boned

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'sex with american' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'just after going inside teacher' is the wordplay.
'just after' becomes 'on'.
'going inside' is an insertion indicator.
'teacher' becomes 'BEd' (Bachelor of Education).
'on' put within 'bed' is 'BONED'.

'had' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for boned that I've seen is " Filleted".)
