During a dual instructional flight the aircraft experienced an engine failure. They tried to turn back to the field when they realised they were too low and about to hit a tree, the instructor lowered the flaps to full to try and bump over the tree and at that point the aircraft tipped on its side and clipped a few trees then came to rest where it did amongst the large tree. The instructor and student were able to exit the aircraft.
