The term "educational supplementary fees" is excerpted from a report from China. I personally think that the word "educational" is redundant here. In most schools and universities, "supplementary fees" is sufficient for "教辅费".

You may also add the word "materials" in "supplementary materials fees" for "教辅费".

If you want to specifically refer to the supplementary materials for test or examination preparation (such as TOEFL or GRE preparation materials), you may try "examination preparation materials fees" or "test preparation materials fees".

Moreover, there is also a word "cram", which means "to prepare yourself for an examination by learning a lot of information quickly", for example, "test-cramming materials". However, the word "cramming" usually has a negative connotation.
抱歉各位，我没解释好，“教辅”实际上就是那些专门用来考试的作业，有“精读”、“考试攻读”、“鸡精书”的说法，我希望翻译出来可以一眼就准确的表达它们这种用来考试的性质，难道国外没有这种专门为考试的作业本吗？我一时想不出来，希望各位帮忙。我想过“supplementary workbooks” that are often exam-oriented， 但太长了。感谢！
