A classification of real matrix irreducible representations of finite-dimensional real Clifford algebras has been made. In contrast to the case of complex representation, three distinct types of representations can be obtained which we call normal, almost complex, and quaternionic. The dimension of the latter two cases is twice as large as that of the normal representation. A criteria for a given Clifford algebra to possess a particular type of the representations is also given with some applications.
