a real image is an image which is located in the plane of convergence for the light rays that originate from a given object. a virtual image is an image formed when the outgoing rays from a point on an object always diverge. The image appears to be located at the point of apparent divergence.

If you are able to draw a light ray from the object to the image then the image is real otherwise it's virtual. Normally for lens the virtual images are formed in front. For mirrors at the back.
